Aguá House / BOLO arquitetos

The conception of the project began with an analysis of the location. The 100m² plot of land located on Praia do Capricórnio in Caraguatatuba is part of a subdivision dating back to the mid-1970s and the clients' main intention was to create a new summer house on land that had been in the family for decades. Our mission was to solve pre-existing features in order to make a house for weekends that would be a meeting point for the whole family, with comfort and practical maintenance. With this in mind, the entire house was designed in reinforced concrete, with its structure designed to interfere minimally with the layout of the spaces. We chose to leave a large part of the structure exposed, leaving the inverted beam system only on the upper floor so as not to interfere with the visual breadth we sought for the project.
