The three distinct masses within this architectural composition transcend mere juxtaposition, as they seamlessly intertwine both in form and function to create a harmonious living environment. Each volume is thoughtfully interconnected to fulfill the diverse needs of the household, fostering a sense of unity and cohesion within the space.

Bürgel House / Luiz Volpato

April 26, 2024 Andreas Luco 0

The client’s request to create a residence for a small family in the context of large-scale properties presented a unique design challenge. This need for scale and volume in the immediate surroundings, together with the steep slope of the land, the geographical orientation, and the presence of a large forest at the back of the plot led to the design and implementation strategy: an elevated basic prism synthesized the solution to meet all the initial premises. The topography of the plot, with its steep slope, offered a unique opportunity to integrate the house into the natural landscape, taking advantage of the views and the edge of the forest that demarcates it to create privacy and a connection with nature. This careful balance between scale, topography, and climate would be essential to create a space that not only meets the needs of the family but also enriches the fabric of the condominium and its relationship with the environment.
