“inter-Trees“ House – Secretario, Rio de Janeiro / 2012
Located at 640m altitude, 120km from Rio de Janeiro, with 340sqm, is for use on weekends and holidays.
This was the very radical renovation of an already existing house, of almost square surface, to which new spaces (volumes) were added in 3 of its sides.
The living room area had very low ceilings and we lowered its floor to achieve more proportional and cozy space.
The house is located in the best place: between two magnificent trees.
It is a place of rest and of receiving many friends.
