Piscinas de Mares by Alvaro Siza.
The tea house and Leca baths on the shores of Palmeira, Portugal, is a stone and concrete structure, angular and edgy, that is built into the rocks. It is intimate, welcoming, and blends into the nature, complementing its surroundings. You don't even suspect there's a building, until you walk through corridors dug into the ground, and come out at an opening which has a brilliant view of the glittering seas. Shimmering sunshine, endless sky, crashing waves and clambering up rocks in the name of exploring architecture. I can't recall the last time I felt that relaxed.
