Cipete Residence
A unique sloping site proportion is developed to be a tropical, mid-century space for this artsy family. They enjoy a house that looks like a ‘house’: a simple, humble one that has aperture towards nature.

The house is programmed into two pavilion-like masses with a stretched verandah, an element that has been chosen as a space dialogue between pavilions. This dialogue unfolds the hortus conclusus, which embarks the main feature of the house.

Arranged as a system of paralleled pavilions with an enclosed garden within its core, this house is defined in its inward relationship with itself. Each terrace accommodates specific activities for the occupants. A yoga space, which faces a sloping garden, is proposed as a still salve from harried, urban lifestyle.
