Located on an estuary of Prien Lake, straddling the Louisiana/Texas border, Pelican House exudes an elevated cabin aesthetic. Clad in Western red cedar and embellished with Texas Lueder limestone columns, broad overhangs, and exposed wood beams, it's a stunning bayou home anchored by glass walls that connect it to the surrounding landscape – and keep it safe when Mother Nature rages.
"It's a very picturesque location, but as you would imagine, it's also a very stormy one," says architect Winn Wittman, who designed the home for indoor-outdoor living in the Gulf Coast climate. Embraced and hammered by nature, Pelican House has withstood four hurricanes, both during and after construction. "The only evidence of the hurricanes is that the wood, which was initially smooth, now has a sandblasted appearance," Wittman says.

This Saturday, October 26, at 5:00 PM, artist Fernanda Leme, curator Alexandre Sá, and art critic Marisa Flórido will host a guided tour of the exhibition “Monstros,” which remains on view through October 31 at Z42 Arte in Cosme Velho. The exhibition provides an overview of the eleven-year career of Rio-based artist Fernanda Leme, featuring approximately 80 paintings—most of which are previously unseen—produced from 2013 to the present. These works explore the intersection of painting and photography in contemporary life. Drawing from her own experiences, the artist uses her work to address universal themes, such as the liquid society we inhabit, the fleeting nature of images, grief, loss, and longing. “The exhibition is a chronicle of our time, a work of memory and imagery,” the artist explains.
