M House in Portugal Embraces Light, Landscape, and Concrete Precision

Located in Portugal, M House by Silverline Architects is a striking example of contemporary residential architecture that balances concrete strength with a strong connection to its surroundings. The home features a bold, floating concrete upper volume that shades the open-plan living space below, while retractable glass walls blur the boundary between interior and exterior.

The design leans heavily on minimalism and materials—poured concrete, warm wood accents, and natural stone create a serene palette. The upper floor balcony is softened by cascading greenery, introducing softness to the rigid geometry. The landscaping is understated yet intentional, enclosing the property in privacy while keeping the view open toward the pool and garden.
