House on Baleia Beach / André Vainer Arquitetos

closed

One of these trees, a sun umbrella located in the middle of the lot and spanning the ground and upper terraces, became a participating element of the construction.Text description provided by the architects.The project, specifically concerning metal pillars, aimed to occupy the minimum amount of land possible; however, two large existing trees and mandatory setbacks ended up shaping the layout.The resulting volume occupied approximately half of the land - from the street to the back - leaving a considerable garden along the construction. In this way, the entire house opens directly to it.The organization of the layout is traditional: living spaces on the ground floor, connected to the garden, and bedrooms on the upper floor, linked by an uncovered terrace.
