Fact sheet — vale das videiras

Petrópolis, RJ

A house carved into the hillside of Vale das Videiras. Stone retaining wall roots the project into the slope—the earth's own material, holding its weight. Above it, a horizontal concrete volume extends the natural platform, creating the living plane. The topography dictates the section: stone anchors, concrete inhabits, glass dissolves the boundary between constructed and given ground.
