Other highlight is the color of the house, the vibrant red in contrast with the forest green. The wood of the structure, floor, ceiling, windows, doors and the furniture was made by a carpenter that worked with Zanine Caldas, a famous carpenter in Brazil. The big glass wall allows the landscape turns the scenery of the house. The one slope simple roof is remarkable for the architecture with its levels and its volume change. The architect has done the house and the interior project as well as the design of the furniture.
