KE House

Architects: NK Arquitetura

The KE residential project is the impression of the client's' personality in architecture. A cosmopolitan couple who likes to receive friends and at the same time enjoy the comfort of the house next to their dogs, Cocada and Banana.The house is in a closed condominium in Curitiba, the lot had its maximum constructive potential used to be able to fulfill the scope requested by the couple. The basement houses the garage and services and thus frees the ground floor for the integrated social area that crosses from the front to the back of the land, providing good views as well as cross ventilation. The upper floor is intended for the private area and going up another floor there is the surprise of a barbecue space with a large outdoor terrace, intended for parties and enjoying the view of the forest.

Bunker House

Architects: Nha Dan Architects
Area: 877 m²
Year: 2019
Photographs: Hiroyuki Oki

In previous projects, a system of concrete beams and columns was used to free the floor plans of columns, better connecting the different spaces while letting the outdoors in. In Bunker House, we employed this concrete system not only as structure, but also as spatial partitions and the project’s guiding aesthetics.

Amazing house design for people who have a low land plot area!

VY ANH House

Architects: Khuon Studio
Area: 60 m²
Year: 2019
Photographs: Thiet Vu

Vy Anh House is conceived as a retreat where the client can enjoy their own peace after a busy working day. This idea leads to a louver system that completely covers the façade, except for an emergency exit door in the front. Though armored on the outside, the house features a lively atrium filled with sun-kissed, lush greenery.

Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light.
