Text description provided by the architects. House set in a 319 m² plot in a gated community in the city of Curitiba. The customer demand was to build a spacious and integrated residence, in which service and social spaces should be on the ground floor and private areas on the upper floor. At least bedroom suites, a family room and office, kitchen, living/ dining room, laundry and garage for two vehicles. Additionally, a toilet adjacent to the main access, a storage connected to the kitchen and a deposit to the garage were included to the program. The total area is 280,30 m², 154,70m² on the ground floor and 125,60 m² on the upper floor. The main challenge was to set the house at several levels to overcome the existing six meter slope. The garage was set first - at the lowest level to avoid a steep access. Then, the access was defined and the ground floor was proposed in two levels. Despite the area limitation, it was possible to create an outdoor garden space connected to the living room and service area.
