Text description provided by the architects. When architect Frederico Sabella left his office in São Paulo for his first visit to the farm in Itanhandu, in southern Minas Gerais, he was struck by the beauty of the cornfield visible from the top of the hill chosen for the house’s construction. Although there was ample space, the ideal spot was not at the summit. To ensure a more sheltered and inviting area, Sabella suggested to the young farmer that the house be positioned three or four meters below.
