About Hera Phacz Home Residensiële Gebou

Hera Phacz Home is 'n residensiële gebou wat beplan is vir 'n stedelike terrein in Porto Belo, Brasilië. Die dertig-verdieping-toring huisves agt-en-veertig woonstelle, twee op elke verdieping, en 'n ontspanningsarea op die sesde verdieping. Ses verskillende soorte plante wissel af langs die verdiepings, wat aan die gewel 'n sterk gevoel van beweging gee. Beton, glas, metaal, hout, inheemse plantegroei en LED-beligting word gebruik. Die biofiliese ontwerp bring die natuur na die stad en ondersteun die gerief en welstand van die inwoners. Gedeelde ruimtes moedig sosiale interaksie aan.
