The GD House is a difficult project that was just finished by ESQUISOS-Architecture and Consultation, a Portuguese company. The structure has four floors, three of which are joined by a sculpture-like staircase that is part of the architectural route.... The GD House was designed by Garcia da Silva & Garcia da Silva Architects for two young architects who were friends with the founders of their firm. They wanted to build a house that was unique and that they could live in themselves. So, the designers created a flexible space that could change its use by adding rooms or removing others. The result is a house that can be used for living purposes only, but it could also be turned into an office or a workshop if needed. They called this type of house "GD Houses" because it was designed by two architects who were members of the Garcia da Silva family. The first one to create such a house was their father, who built his own home when he was still young. He showed his sons how to design buildings before they started working as independent architects themselves! In Portugal, there are only five other GD Houses besides this one. Three of them are owned by Garcia da Silva & Garcia da Silva Architects, while the other two are private homes. Even though these five houses look different from each other, they all have something in common: flexibility!
