 Architect: Marcio Kogan Location: Brasilia, Brazil On the ground floor, the rooms open out using rotating wooden panels, which are reminiscent of other elements frequently used in the modernist city. Throughout this area there is cross-ventilation. The small foyer in the entrance connects to the second floor with a delicate staircase. The upper floor is organized in a prism of glass and concrete and is supported by stilts. The living room is in spatial continuity with the kitchen, separated only by a table used to prepare the food. All of the equipment and furniture of the kitchen are available on this table, in order that nothing vertically interrupts the visual transparency of the volume. On the roof of the ground floor, connected to the living room, the garden terrace extends the external area. close up of wall design: probably no one is interested in seeing floor plans, but maybe there's a couple ex-architect majors or enthusiasts around here hiding, so here they are.

I like the minimalism.
I'd stay there. |

The floor plan is unobstructed, so the tenants can divide the spaces however they'd like.
It's beautiful. |

That top part just doesn't look like it would be too stable, especially in a tropical storm or something.
