The Design
About The Fifth Element Residência
A residência é composta por cinco retângulos paralelos. Os blocos da Garagem e do Spa são deslocados em relação ao volume de estar. Eles o protegem de olhares indiscretos e formam um campo compacto para as áreas de entrada e recreação, respectivamente. O Spa projeta-se em balanço sobre o solo e se abre para a natureza através de seu envidraçamento. As fachadas voltadas para a floresta apresentam janelas de piso ao teto que preenchem os espaços de convivência com luz e ar. A instalação aquática do terraço cria um microclima no calor do verão. A torre de dois pavimentos da sala de estar forma um eixo vertical que subordina todos os elementos do edifício e da paisagem.
