Located on the cold slopes of Gramado, in southern Brazil, the Concreto E18 House embodies the meeting between contemporary Uruguayan architecture and the cold mountain aesthetic characteristic of Rio Grande do Sul. The terrain, surrounded by native vegetation, demanded a solution that balanced presence and integration—a house that would stand out for its form while remaining in dialogue with the natural surroundings and the intense mountain climate.

In the C5 House, the users' choices and preferences configure the personality and functionality of this home. The main residents, a 9-year-old girl and a 6-year-old boy, when asked what they would like the new house, were quick to say, "We want a garden to play with!" After living in a small apartment in the city center, they were looking forward to the move. The residence with just over 200m² of single-storey house offers translated spaces for children and their leisure and study activities and planned environments with priority in family activities. On the main façade, the carport acts as a covered playground for rainy days. The lake access balcony, located at the back of the house, is a favorite place for water games.
