The name of this residential project is originated in the neighborhood of São Conrado, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where it is located. Piacenza is the name of the birthplace of Saint Conrad (São Conrado in Portuguese), in northern Italy. The elongate shape of the terrain and its gentle slope were the main points that guided the configuration of the project. The main concept of this project was to create a comfortable house, with a relaxing atmosphere that invite the nature to enter through the integration of spaces, using light and natural ventilation, application of the green roof system to improve thermal comfort, reuse of rainwater and gray waters and solar energy with panels positioned on the top cover.
