Residência Praia Brava

A house nestled in the steep countryside

The residential building in Itajaí (SC), Brazil, makes optimal use of the extremely challenging terrain with an incline of up to 40% and a pointed corner plot. Surrounded by rainforest, the building integrates seamlessly into the steep landscape and, at the same time, offers panoramic views of the sea at Praia Brava Sul. This was made possible using numerous Design sliding doors, which not only enhance the generous feeling of space, but also emphasise the concept of maximum openness and permeability.
