Ubatuba is one of the most important coastal cities in the state of São Paulo.
This 55m x 16m ground plot, located at the far right end of Tenório’s Beach, borders on the seashore at one side and goes up a 50% slope hill, only reaching street level at 28 meters.
The hard steep hill and its trees are both protected by environmental laws. They have inspired the entire strategy used in the conception of the project.
Three columns, made in reinforced concrete, support the house.
The casting of these columns is possible by the use of sliding forms.
Four beams lay on the top of them in order to hang the slabs from above and also to avoid the use of support frames during the construction process, making it faster and more rational.
The very thin, beamless slabs and their level arrangements allow incredible sea views from every room inside the house.
