House 8 / Marcos Bertoldi Arquitetos

The 2,124 m² sloping lot with a native woodland at the rear, defined the project by imposing a building setback, preserving a lawned garden and a pool at the back, while respecting the protection zones required by local environmental regulations. The L-shaped ground floor plan concentrates the social areas, service spaces, and a studio. The shorter leg of the L features a single-story double-height volume dedicated to the main living spaces of the house, which are complemented by a powder room and a wine cellar located in the lower volume beneath a green roof. The longer leg comprises three levels, starting with garages in the basement, service areas on the ground floor, and bedrooms on the upper floor. The bedrooms are positioned to the north, with the master suite facing east and overlooking the woodland.
