Architecture Design of House of Toninhas

Description About The Project

House of Toninhas designed by 24 7 Arquitetura is a prominent project that located among the large green nature. Indeed, the terrain imposed a structural challenge and the steep slope and a large number of rocks and native vegetation made access difficult and prevented the view of the sea. Thus, the access to the house was designed to overcome the natural obstacle imposed by the terrain itself, guiding the user through the transition between the Atlantic Forest and the ocean view. A walkway marks the axis from the entrance of the house to the destination: framing the ocean view. At the entrance, nature takes the lead of the project, attract the eyes of those who arrive and in a natural way, walk to the balcony, unaware of the living room door located on the right side of the hallway.

On the other hand, highlight the landscape, the pavilion layout makes all the rooms face the sea, while the intimate wing, located one level below, closer to the natural ground, also opens to the Atlantic Forest, in a close relationship with the treetops. In addition to this, the decision to allocate the bedrooms below the social area not only respects the natural slope of the terrain but also inserts the building into the landscape in a gentle and harmonious way.

Moreover, to control the insolation on the lower level, the designer has cladding by slatted panels that open and close, and on the upper level. The closing done by large sliding glass panels, set back from the limit of the roof slab, help to reduce solar exposure in the hottest seasons. The house benefits from abundant natural lighting and permanent cross ventilation, providing adequate thermal comfort for the residents.

Indeed, for those looking from the beach, the House of Toninhas seems to hover above the treetops. So the house has two main façades: the one overlooking the sea and the one overlooking the forest.

Text by the Architects: Located in the city of Ubatuba, about 230km from Sao Paulo, this summerhouse – House of Toninhas is on a steep slope and in the presence of a dense Atlantic Forest, circumstances that led the project to a dialogue between the design and the exuberant nature of the surroundings.
