Olive grove poetry with a SIBECO floor in Maison Amarande situated in Serra St. António, Portugal.
The architects at Maison Amarande create unique homes that integrate into the environment they are built in. This old mountain house in the middle of Serra de Santo António has been restored and turned into a large, warm, comforting and open space with hang out spaces both for family and gatherings of friends.
The house interior with its choice of natural materials, colours, shapes, forms and shades, creates a cosy and functional family home with soul and personality.
The big windows and glass doors, elegantly protected from excessive sunlight, bring natural light into the house. Wherever you are in the house, you are in constant dialogue with nature and the amazing infinite landscape of olive trees .
The continuous SIBECO floor is created to match the natural materials. The seamless and soft balanced colour creates harmony and calm. Because SIBECO can be jointless in very low thickness makes it ideal for restoration work. More importantly, it gives the architects an opportunity to make inside and outside areas flow together by seamlessly connecting the interior and exterior.
SIBECO can be installed both inside and outside. Resistant to chemicals, the material can be smooth but can also be textured to create anti-slip surfaces that can take high pressure cleaning and so can also be applied around the pool.
It’s a pleasure to participate in this kind of project, where the original spirit is maintained and our materials are used to create a unique home.
