Text description provided by the architects. Located in Nova Lima, Minas Gerais, Residência TA was designed to integrate seamlessly with the rugged terrain it inhabits. With slopes of 30% horizontally and 20% transversally, the project maximizes land use by stepping towards the slope, minimizing space wastage and reducing the need for earth movement and retaining walls. This approach results in a discreet, horizontal volumetrics that naturally blends into the surroundings.
The main openings of the house are strategically oriented towards the mountains in the southeast and the lower neighboring buildings on the left (east), ensuring privileged views and privacy. On the northwest-facing street facade, copper brises on the frames and thoughtful landscaping contribute to both thermal comfort and visual appeal of the indoor environment.
The residence's program spans across three floors connected by stairs and an elevator. The basement houses the garage and service areas, while the ground floor focuses on the social area of the house. Bedrooms are located on the second floor, providing privacy for the residents.
Residência TA not only addresses the specificities of the local terrain and climate but also incorporates solutions that foster a positive relationship with the immediate surroundings.
