ALTAR HOUSES
Location: Legado das Águas - Reserva Votorantim
Year: 2021
Type of Collaboration: Preliminary study and Executive project
Type of project: Accommodation in nature, Inclosure, Tiny Houses
The project aims to build small houses that serve as an escape from the urban environments to the nature landscape. The houses would serve as accommodations and would be managed by the Altar company. The design of the houses aimed to mimic the nature by implementing local materiality, large openings and the compression of the house program (Tiny Houses). As a result, the project creates a relationship between the natural environment and the house itself, making the guest feels like he is inhabiting nature.
