Tree overlapping volumes form the plant of this country house in the interior of São Paulo. The houses centralized implantation on the land creates three independent patios: one for access and parking, another for leisure where the social part is facing and finally, the backyard patio contemplated though circulating rooms.

The shutters vary in function of the internal spaces and the need for openness and privacy. Stone walls were used in the exterior façade, hollow wood panels for the intimate spaces, and glass doors for the lounge areas. The wooden linings of the circulating areas and verandas filter natural light from the Domus coverage. Variations on the floor level and ceiling create different ceiling heights and different interactions with the garden, allowing direct access, while having the house suspended from the land.
