Casa Aurora is located in the county of Pinhais, near Curitiba, with a privileged view of the Serra do Mar. The property is situated in a family condominium, where previous generations have kindly planted Araucarias, a tree that is important to the Brazilian flora. In this well-lit clearing with winds directed by the mountains, the entire house was built on the ground level, with the social area near the street and the service/private sector in the most private part of the lot. With a configuration in the shape of an "L," an extensive sunny lawn was created for family activities.
The social and intimate blocks were separated with the intention of creating a break in the access corridor, where a garden was located next to the helical staircase. This provides access to the uncovered terrace, overlooking the social areas and following the clients' premise of valuing the view of the sea, and providing them with a space to enjoy the late afternoon and the sunset. With this captured scenario, the architectural concept was achieved through exposed concrete walls, carefully crafted to provide the desired privacy for the residents and mark the boundaries of the residence. The wall located to the south has strategic cut outs ensuring cross ventilation for the suite's bathroom and the laundry area, which is not only well-lit and ventilated but also features its own uncovered garden for drying clothes.
Other strategies have been created to protect the environments from excessive sunlight, such as the application of eaves, wooden brises, and concrete cobogós. These are also used as a permeable layer of interaction between the social area and the internal street. In the intimate area, expanded clay helps with thermal protection, while in the social area, the terrace floor in Goiás green stone does the job. The intention to bring lightness to the environments permeated the development of the interior design, reinforcing the objective of a house designed to serve the day-to-day needs of the residents. A light floor, white walls, and focal points through the intervention of the clients' personal objects complement the project's intention.
