Its history is impossible to trace back, and tenants afterwards also made a lot of add-on in both interior and exterior space. It also reduced the original form of massing which is more and more ambiguous. The plan is almost a C shape, with an enclosed courtyard.

The residence ZB is located in the city of Jaraguá do Sul, Santa Catarina, Brazil. The terrain with great inclination has a total area of approximately 1,400 m2.
