Inside a Home Designed as ‘Ruins of the Future’ (House Tour)

[@TheLocalProject]

We hope you enjoyed this unique exploration of a home that challenges conventional living and inspires new possibilities. Designed by Manuel Aires Mateus and brought to life with the help of MA+Co and Neometro, Mori House embodies principles of form, layout, and scale, creating a harmonious blend of coastal beauty and innovative architecture. Mori House is featured in our most recent trio of hardcover books, Habitats: City, Coast and Forest. Be sure to order your copy today: thelocalproject.com.au/product/habitats-city-coast-forest/

Wow this is the first time I've seen an all concrete house who doesn't feel or look cold. I love the way the architect divided the spaces with this cross method. Very beautiful

[@marinathomas7820]

Just what I wanted to say,

[@James-In-Exile]

Yes, I wasn't expecting to like it, but the concept won me over.

[@TheLocalProject]

We're really glad you found the all-concrete house warm and inviting. The architect's innovative use of the cross method to divide spaces truly enhances the beauty and functionality of the home. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

[@ivanklymenko]

I fully support this - it’s an amazing phenomenon.

[@kennethgavey]

imagine if everyone could have a home that evokes their own personal version of peace, calm, tranquility, and zen. pure joy.

[@jacobgookin428]

We could if people trusted and bought into the process of architectural design. We’d also have to outlaw large scale property development companies

[@jodyhardwick7711]

This is remarkable. I am in awe of everything about this project. What an achievement.

[@aleksandra797]

I just love love the idea of a light coming into the house in a shape of cross and moving throughout a day… the choreography of it ads so much dynamic to a peaceful home.

Tão bom ver um português falar a sua língua num projeto gigante como este 🇵🇹

[@0xmigu]

Espetacular ser apanhado de surpresa com um português nos videos do Local Project! Excelente conceito e design.

[@Itsbennyfuchs]

Gosh the tatami room is pure visual wellness for the eyes. The entire project is breathtaking, as it is with the videoography.

[@TheLocalProject]

We're glad to hear it!

[@Shostakovich33]

The doors and intersection of spaces at 2:54 🤩🤩🤩😍

[@cauneacelisalola3932]

Didn’t expect to see Aires Mateus in the video. Amazing! If we could see a few more renowned architects it would be very interesting. It would also allow us to see how their work adds to the work of the other architects you have on the channel.

[@janelte]

Exquisite. A work of art as well as a home. Thank you so much for sharing it with us all.

[@TheLocalProject]

We're glad you enjoyed it 🙌

[@Throneproperty_th]

It's one of the best projects I saw on this channel so far!

[@lifearttimes]

This architecturec, the Tatami room, design, art and the gardens, made my heart sing. could live there. Thabts a compliment!🙌🏽✨✊🏽

[@TheLocalProject]

We're glad to hear it!

[@manjunathbs]

Thanks for featuring this house. I was looking forward for a video ever since this featured in the wallpaper magazine this year. 🎉

[@TheLocalProject]

Our pleasure! We've had our eye on this one for a very long time.

[@oliverlondon5246]

Love the way the concrete is sculptured

[@TheLocalProject]

Us too!

[@reitsmaassociates]

Simply breath taking - congratulations to all involved

[@karlyd7274]

Here for the chicken! 🐔😆 Oh yes, and the beautiful home! 😉

[@joelmuniz9161]

Essa arquitetura brasileira tem muito a oferecer e mil maneiras de estar sempre diferente ao mesmo tempo.

[@TheSushmaHomeSellingTeam]

This can only be executed by intelligent minds. 💯💯

[@NiceTower]

Amazing 💜

[@nikitaivanov1536]

One of the best projects, that I saw on this channel so far! Very interestingly designed, thoughtful and I guess homey. Bravo!

[@ningwang4986]

chill out & relax

[@BillWoodillustrator]

Love it- of course. My only concern as someone originally coming from country SA, is the risk of snakes under the house as I have duly noted throughout the video- maybe that’s why an axe is prominent at 4’39”…. 😂

[@TheLocalProject]

You could be right! Glad you enjoyed the video and home.

[@ashleykarenroy87]

I wept. I love this with every fiber of my being.

[@angelaballard3929]

Same

[@TheLocalProject]

Thank you for your heartfelt comment Ashley. It means the world to us that the design moved you so deeply. We're also grateful for your generous donation, thank you!

[@sharrebenezer]

you wept 😮 really??? And why ? 🤔

[@qantumbutter8219]

What a wonderful home, dwelling and living space! So much going with this design, inside and out. Much more interesting than many of the well appointed but beige homes so often shown on this channel. Thank you!

[@You_can_save_money]

Thank you, I had an interesting time.

[@jayofthebuj]

This is just so beautifully done

[@TheLocalProject]

It's a very special project!

[@dominiquefrapie8137]

Simplement bravo pour ce projet Une réussite totale. Merci

[@craigjohnson8240]

This is stunning.

[@akirahojo2]

Reminiscent of Tadao Ando, love the tatami room in the mix.

[@TheLocalProject]

The tatami room is a wonderful addition that brings a touch of traditional Japanese design to the mix. Thanks for watching!

[@mariamartins1976]

Simplesmente mágico! ♥

[@JaredCzaia]

Excellent work. Well thought out.

[@nooahchannel]

Nice, i love the design.

[@lululand1653]

Simply superb!

[@TheLocalProject]

Glad you like it!

[@Engram0913]

[@seniraranasinghe645]

4:55 that was so random.

[@ununoctiu]

Parabéns!

[@marcin-krupa]

Simple awesome

[@andrew4809]

Love Gory House

[@slothsarecool]

jeeze, how much does it cost to build such a house? looks massive

[@erinpalmer7179]

"Designing possibilities for freedom"

[@flottenheimer]

@7:27 does anyone know the exact brand/model of those chairs? Absolutely lovely house and video, btw.

[@saeedalseiari1]

شكرًا

[@hintex487]

Wow

[@choissounds39]

우리집도 이렇게 지어야겠다

[@byroncy1059]

I want to build something similar would love if they could finance my house!

[@BSA_Lighting_Design]

🤩🤩

[@user-kk8fz7jo3n]

off topic but what's the name of the music in the background?

[@lobstermash]

No books? Not sure if they have moved in yet as there are few signs of habitation. It's a beautiful building but I'm not sure how to be in it - where to eat breakfast, where to chat, where to read a book, where to paint - ?

[@juancarlosgallegos3902]

This house is so sick. I cheered aloud when they talked about the light cross moving throughout the day. The owner was kinda annoyingly stuffy though, but that's to be expected. His whole thing about keeping the rooftop "pure" was absolute rubbish IMO. Complete waste of an opportunity to make an amazing space to be in. Instead, it's just a spot you can come be in for like 15mins tops, smh

[@DenisDenisov-g2l]

What's stuck to your grandfather's hand when he's swimming in the pool?

[@PUMIC]

👏

[@FHH618]

Every one of these videos has the same phrase by these pretentious architects…”the brief was simple…”

[@arkaneforyou]

I would appreciate if you guys used less dramatic color grading for your videos it just doesnt look natural. I am pretty sure nothing look like irl compared to the video

[@paradonym]

At least he tried to make it feel a bit warmer. I like the wood accents, but from the outside it just looks pretty cold. It feels like a public viewing platform in an area where the city doesn't have much money to make it nice, but the city still wants to do something for its citizens... With a kind of attached public pool which got a bit too small which might be plausible given the sea is nearby... Sorry, but personally I don't like it that much.

[@divine_2589]

For Rich people only 😢

[@sillybillyno1]

its so sad that this is championed as something amazing when its really just devoid of anything more than a car park building, aesthetically.

[@romaveloz]

Sigh, another austere bunch of gray rectangles with the stereotypical huge opening glass panels. Are there no insects or blowing dust or flying birds that will drift in as easily as the chickens? Modern architecture liked this leaves me with little hope for the future of culture.

[@biusch]

Nothing new, same old boring design disconnected from the outside wild ecosystem. Stop talking about this architecture like it is an actual interesting one.
