A Encomenda

Overview

The film showcases the small weekend house designed and built by Raúl Hestnes Ferreira in Albarraque between 1959 and 1961 for his father, the poet José Gomes Ferreira. An early work, it was created after a two-year stay in Finland and reflects a desire to create a new style of architecture, in which the influence of Alvar Aalto can be felt.
