The Project
The jury valorised and appreciated the simple aesthetics of applying Basalte products in the Life Emotions project and the perfect combination between them: Sentido + Deseo + Auro + Eve on a splendid residence situated in front of the Atlantic Ocean that shares a neighbourhood with one of the best golf courses of Portugal and conceived by one of the best portuguese architects: Frederico Valsassina.
A mansion of unparalleled sobriety, heavenly minimalist, accompanied by refined technology and where Basalte products become precious pieces of design and functionality. Life Emotions conceived a project of technological integration based on one of the client'sfavourite mottos: less is more. Lower technological complexity means greater ease of use, greater comfort, safety and tranquillity, materialized in an integrated system of lighting control, air conditioning, natural light intensity and motion sensors.
The house will be used especially during the weekends, being very important for the family, its easy and carefree use. The complex climate control system has three independent systems that must work together. The usual thermostats have been removed from the walls and the large glass windows that faces the ocean are electrically controlled with Basalte because the customer does not appreciate the usual buttons of the market. Therefore, the result is an elegant equipment in parallel with aesthetics of the white concrete walls, replacing the usual visual pollution of numerous props with different functions and designs. .
The same switches concentrate several functions in order to avoid an infinity of equipment, being able to manage lighting, opening doors, blackouts, and even selecting the "farewell" mode, meaning, it allows the customer to leave the house without worries putting the air conditioning system on stand-by, turning off the lights, closing the windows blackouts, checking if any doors are open and turning off all audio and video equipment.
