This was actually the second house that I designed after I started my own Architectural firm. I worked closely with the clients to create an open floor plan, that takes advantage of the 'left-over' lot that they purchased in The Woodlands. Designing a house with a unique lot was really a fun experience, as well as a challenge, and led to the cool "Y" shaped floor plan. The great room is one of the best spaces that I have ever designed, and love the feeling I still get when I step from the small foyer out into the grand space.   Located in The Woodlands, Texas.Featured on the 2013 Woodlands AIA Home Tour.

Listening to the “water features located at the site”.PAUSE from the exterior is a cube that holds a suspended brick volume and this is adequate enough to incite the adventure and curiosity... More

The residence for a family of two - commissioned by a technology entrepreneur. Located in a 15.000 m2 lot in the Metropolitan Region of Curitiba, construction should not advance on the area of ​​environmental protection that covers almost 70% of the site. The occupation in the western portion of the terrain, where a natural clearing already existed, proved to be the least invasive option.The residence develops along two axes: an internal and an external circulation. While the interior corridor promotes access to the house's surroundings, the exterior creates a space for articulation between the woods and the house, and also serves as a rectilinear balcony with access to the kitchen, dining, living and office.The sectorization defines the bu...
