MS House / Michel Macedo Arquitetos

Pilar Caballero — Tue, 22 Oct 2024 14:00:00 +0000

Situated on the edges of the urban perimeter, on a spacious and elevated plot, this residence emerges as a landmark of integration between architecture and landscape. Its privileged location allows residents to enjoy a panoramic view of the city, transforming the space into a true lookout that simultaneously serves as a refuge from urban hustle.

Alagado House / Michel Macedo Arquitetos

Along the Iguaçu River channel, several hydroelectric plants were built over the years, and as a result, large areas of land were flooded and the natural landscape was modified. The result: an increase in leisure and contemplation tourism. The project for the House Alagado aims to be a positive part of this scenario and is located in Nova Prata do Iguaçu, in the floodplain of the Salto Caxias hydroelectric plant. Respecting the setback from the riverbank, the construction occupies the highest portion of the land and, to better adapt to the slope, divides its access into two half-levels. Next to the floor, part of the living area is embedded, at a lower and more protected level. On it rests the volume of the intimate area, free from the ground, separated by a slit, a visual gap between the water and the house.

JK House / Michel Macedo Arquitetos

Composed of two fundamental aspects: structural design and nature, this house merges building elements into a beautiful valley landscape in Paraná state in Brazil, interrelating the geographical aspect and the local topography. Implemented as a stone inserted into the landscape, the raised ground floor on a single plateau is bounded by a concrete wall at a more private level relative to the street, adding the pool at its edge minimizing landfill impact.

RG House / Michel Macedo Arquitetos

Pilar Caballero — Mon, 27 May 2019 14:00:00 +0000

Conditioned by an environmentally protected area on the backyard, the RG house diverges into two distinct priority facts, one environmental and another human: the uneven topography, characteristic of the city, and the contemplative value that the preserved vegetation offers to the residents on the most private limit of the lot.
