HUMA Arquitetura conceived this rooftop project in Rio de Janeiro with the goal of adapting it to the routine of a young actress and theater director.
From the initial discussions, the resident expressed a desire to have a home that genuinely evoked the feeling of a house. One of the most significant elements she mentioned was her great affinity for stripes, a pattern she wanted to integrate into the different spaces.
The architects embraced this request and transformed it into a strong compositional element. This feature was used to beautify the environment harmoniously, ensuring there was no excess or visual overload in the project.
Casa L.A., a project presented by the design team Emedos Projetos, is located in the gated community La Z Residence. This development is situated in the central area of Jarabacoa, Dominican Republic.
The main objective of Casa L.A. is to establish a symbiotic relationship between the physical environment of the land and the architectural construction itself. To achieve this, the project aims to integrate the various social areas that make up the residence internally.
The design team described the concept of Casa PR, where the entire design is structured around a central patio. This patio functions as an articulating element for all the various spaces of the residence, thus defining the living experience.
This empty space not only serves to control the entry of natural light and ensure adequate ventilation. Furthermore, it establishes constant communication between the internal and external areas of the house.
This interaction between the interior and the exterior results in the creation of an atmosphere characterized by serenity and balance, characteristics that permeate every environment of the building.
