About Bosque Funtzio Nagusia: Etxebizitza Eraikina
Testu Liburua: Bosque Curitiba-n (Brasil) dagoen etxebizitza eraikin bat da, lau solairutan antolatua. Beheko solairuan plano irekiko egongela, jangela eta sukaldea daude, non atari irristakariek argi naturala eta lorategiaren ikuspegiak barrura ekartzen dituzten. Goiko solairuan hiru suite ipar aldera begira daude, eta teilatuan bulego bat, telebista gela bat eta kanpoko jacuzzi bat daude. Bainugela nagusiaren eta eskaileren gaineko argizuloek eguneko argia eta aireztapena gehitzen dute. Poliestireno arineko blokeekin egindako hormigoi aurrefabrikatuzko lauzek zutabeak gabeko espazio zabalak ahalbidetzen dituzte. Eguzki-panelek eta ur-zisterna batek eguneroko erabilera bermatzen dute.

- Unique Properties
- The house boasts clean lines and a contemporary facade, possibly using a mix of natural materials like wood, concrete, and glass. Large windows and sliding doors blur the boundary between indoors and outdoors, offering abundant natural light and views of the surrounding garden.The integration of Green Technologies: It incorporates renewable energy sources like solar panels and utilizes passive design elements for natural ventilation and lighting, reducing energy consumption. Upon entering, the space feels open and uncluttered. The living area, dining space, and kitchen seamlessly flow together in an open-plan layout, promoting interaction and a sense of togetherness. The design emphasizes functionality and simplicity, with clever storage solutions to maintain the minimalist aesthetic.The outdoor space serves as an extension of the living areas, encouraging outdoor activities and relaxation.
Furniture pieces are carefully selected to complement the minimalist design, focusing on clean lines and functionality. Each element serves a purpose while contributing to the overall aesthetic. - Dimensions & Packaging

- Production Technology
- Reinforced concrete. In order to enable wide spaces without the visual interference of structural columns and partition walls, the contractor in partnership with the construction structural engineer decided to use pre-cast concrete slabs interspersed with light weighted polystyrene blocks. This construction technique reduces significantly the structure self-weight loads, enabling long span beam systems without the need to resort to prestressed concrete solutions. Regarding sustainability, we implemented a water collection system that is stored in an underground cistern, and used for irrigation and washing as long as sollar pannels.
- Design Challenge
- Creative Challenge: Design a sustainable house that involves integrating green technologies, optimizing spaces, and fostering a sense of community.
Balancing the costs of sustainable materials and technologies with the project's financial constraints.
Addressing these challenges required a multidisciplinary approach, collaborating with engineers and environmental experts. It involved research, feasibility studies, and innovative design strategies to overcome these obstacles while meeting the project's objectives of sustainability and functionality. - Research
- The city where the project is implemented, is known as cloudy city so using revit simulations, we were able to understand and design the house to get the maximum of sunlight. As a result, we designed large window pannels to achieve both design and ecology to improve performance.
- Inspiration
- We were inspired by the environment, nature and the use of pure materials such as wood, concrete and glass. We wanted to create house that would allow the sunlight to enter the living space when standing on each floor. The master bathroom and the vertical circulation (stairs ) have skylights that offer natural light and ventilation, creating comfortable environments.These skylights also provide a visual transformation with the movement of the sun, generating colors and shadow designs in the house.
- Project Duration
- The house is located in Curitiba,Paraná, Brazil and the project started in june 2020 and finished in may 2022.
- Operation Flow
- The operation of the house prioritizes the needs of the users and its flows and is distributed into four floors.The open-plan main floor is characterized by soaring, hardwood flooring, concrete pillar, and a big window that create seamless indoor/outdoor transitions without sacrificing the privacy of the inhabitants.In order to gain space on the ground floor,the laundry room was placed on the garage floor.The ground floor houses the living area, dining room and a kitchen. The sliding doors bring natural light and garden views into the space.On the upper floor, we have 3 suites facing the north side and providing natural light all day. On the rooftop, we designed an office and a tv room as well as a jacuzzi on the outside.
