Floresta House | DB Estudio de Arquitectura

Concept Of Floresta House

Floresta House aimed to integrate architecture and landscaping into residential buildings with abundant vegetation. The park features concrete structures that float above the plants, emphasizing the connection to nature. The presence of large trees, with rooms arranged according to their size and location, influenced the design of the buildings.

Metal pergolas are used to blend in with the trees and form an integral part of Floresta House. The front of the building is designed for privacy, while the rear opens onto the surrounding landscape to maximize the beautiful views.

When you step into Floresta House, you may be welcomed by a double-peak space. This space acts as a glass box, blurring the limits between the inside and outside. It serves as a central detail, separating the social sector from the service area horizontally and the social region from the non-public area vertically, where the stairs are located. This entrance area creates a sense of immersion in the surrounding vegetation.
