The House That Already Followed the Sun Prepares to Gain Scale

Expresso10 September 2026 at 22:57

In Matosinhos, the Moving Houses project was born, a Portuguese technology that allows a house to follow the sun's movement throughout the day. This innovation represents a differentiating approach in residential construction and energy efficiency.

The project was developed entirely with Portuguese technology, demonstrating the national innovation capacity in the sustainable construction sector. The house already operates following the solar trajectory, taking advantage of natural light in an optimized way.

After the successful implementation in Matosinhos, the project is now preparing to expand to other Portuguese cities. Viana do Castelo and Lisbon are the next destinations where Moving Houses aims to reach, expanding the reach of this technological solution.
