The Intimate Tie Between Nature And Shelter In Itamambuca House

Near Itamambuca beach seashore and surrounded by rich rainforest vegetation, this residence is named concerning its location. The architect Gui Mattos claims the site itself pointed towards the concept, enriching the natural ventilation and sunlight inside. It is defined by a lifted floor raising from nature, and an inverted prism concrete slab with its columns on the borders.
