The Guaicá Residence, situated in the countryside of São Paulo, elegantly integrates itself into a sloping terrain. Access to the residence is guided by a path that gently navigates the topography, leading to the upper level of the house. This path, flanked by a pergola-covered plane, subtly unveils the interior of the residence. With a volumetry that unfolds across two levels, a longitudinal blade and two transversal blades of different sizes stand out, harmonizing solids and voids through translucent and transparent surfaces, contrasting with opaque walls in concrete tones. Exposed concrete is explored both indoors and outdoors, on different planes, giving it a distinctive visual appeal.
