CABANA

Compact and functional, the Cabana is premised on living a unique and timeless experience, making it a refuge in the midst of the chaos of modern life. It was designed so that it can fit in any space and location, always thinking about having the least possible interference with the environment, whether in the choice of materials or at the time of implementation.

Seeking to reduce impacts, steel, cement slab and reforestation wood were chosen as structure and sealing materials, minimizing material waste through leftovers, water consumption, CO2 emissions and aiming at energy efficiency throughout the design process of the Cabana.

Thinking about thermal, lighting and acoustic comfort, the project relies on the use of rock wool on the walls and ceiling, as well as large PVC frames (a material known for its excellent sealing) that are strategically positioned in order to favor cross ventilation, in addition to adopting measures such as the use of LED strips and a wood burning stove. All these actions aim to reduce the need to use air conditioning systems, improve performance in the use of artificial lighting, and consequently minimize the consumption of electricity.
