In Parana, Brazil, there is a house in the south.


It is located in a farm and in a geological fault area,

which is called fault cliff.


A unique advantage here is the broad prospect of native forests.


 Many coastal mountains in Curitiba can be seen on the horizon,

which is about 50 kilometers away.



This building is named [Ref ú gio da Cain ã],

covering an area of about 50 square meters.


The independent building sets off the original ecological environment,

 and the vast natural space and stones on the green land

provide a simple concept of structure for the local characteristics.



Users here will understand what is really important: time.


It shows the minimal intervention

in the natural environment connecting the interior and the exterior,

its essential structural relationship - the concept of man and nature,

 the design of natural harmony, without trying to hide itself,

 showing the natural straight lines and curves.



The main body of the container is 12 meters long.


To the east, there is an all glass building with

a metal shell and a spectacular sunrise.




The supplier plan is to use transparent or opaque glass

 and wood to provide simple and natural effects.


The support pillar of natural terrain is retained to

minimize the damage to the natural environment caused by construction,

reuse containers, and reduce the use of metal structures and waste discharge.
