The JS House is located in Lomba, Gondomar: a rural context in the northern part of the country.

Previously to our intervention, the house was a building meant to aid in the treatment of vegetables and cereals, made out of schist and granite stone. In its surroundings, there was a wood raccard – a traditional granary typically seen in the north of Portugal – and its respective slate threshing floor.
