Description About The Project

Auta House designed by Meius Arquitetura, for the flexibility of uses, being possible for its use as a residence or as the headquarters of a company. On the outside front of the building is the garage with spaces for 2 vehicles. Besides, the first floor consists of two halls, connected by a wide circulation, which opens onto the main patio. In this house, the main patio works as an integrating element of the entire house, allows the entry of natural light and the visual connection between the environments. Also, the openings proposed in the front facade also enhance the lighting of the house as well as the contact between the interior and the exterior.

The front hall, where the toilet located, connected to the garden/ garage through a frame made of carbon steel, which, in addition to pivoting, runs on a rail, enhancing the integration between the spaces. The backroom integrated into the house’s kitchen. Both also connect to the patio. Through the kitchen, one has access to the secondary patio, where the service area was proposed. Besides, the second floor is occupied by a large room, reversible to a third bedroom through its closure, and 2 other bedrooms/ rooms lit through the proposed void. The floor has 2 bathrooms, one of which is integrated into the bedroom/ backroom, which is lit by the smaller void.
