In front of the entrance of the Osler House, located in Brasilia, there is a panel of tiles by the artist Athos Bulcão, designed especially for this wall. Dozens of buildings in Brasilia have panels by Athos, among them are: Planalto Palace, Itamaraty and the National Theater, all by Niemeyer. The artist’s modular tiles are an outstanding feature incorporated into the modern architecture of the modern city: from the beautiful residential buildings of the 60’s on the city’s south wing to the original projects for the institutions of the Brazilian political capital.
The classic and modern tiles of Athos are here in this house of 250m2 which takes on other designs of the modern city: the windows, the concrete, the plant. Two volumes and a small pool and garden compose the organization of the entire program.
On the ground floor, the rooms open out using rotating wooden panels, which are reminiscent of other elements frequently used in the modernist city. Throughout this area there is cross-ventilation. The small foyer in the entrance connects to the second floor with a delicate staircase.
The upper floor is organized in a prism of glass and concrete and is supported by stilts. The living room is in spatial continuity with the kitchen, separated only by a table used to prepare the food. All of the equipment and furniture of the kitchen are available on this table, in order that nothing vertically interrupts the visual transparency of the volume. On the roof of the ground floor, connected to the living room, the garden terrace extends the external area.

[...] The Osler House is located in Brasilia, Brazil. The wonderful feature in its design plans is how they have incorporated the use of a pool so prominently. The night time picture really highlights the effect of the pool in the overall “curb appeal” of the home. The architect on this project was Marco Kogan. The first and second levels are stacked perpendicular on top of one another which also adds and interesting facet to the home. Via. [...]

It’s nice to see some Marcio Kogan featured on this site, one of the best contemporary brazilian architects. Mies influence is spot on, but also I see a lot of Phillip Johnson on Kogan’s houses.
