A contemporary 4-ensuite residence designed on a sloping site, featuring an L-shaped layout that maximizes sunlight and cross ventilation, with living spaces cantilevered over an exposed concrete block and a small swimming pool.
Clients' aim was a 4 ensuite levelled house on a moderate to steep sloping site was resolved with a design that accommodates all functions apart from the garage and storage on an intermediary floor. The dwelling is designed in a L shape with the living-dining-kitchen wing oriented East to West making the most of the sun. This wing sits on an exposed in-situ concrete block (where small swimming pool is placed) and cantilevers over the Eastern portion of the site. The bedroom wings sit on ground 1.8 m away from the retaining wall allowing cross ventilation to freshen the house during the Brazilian warm seasons.
