Txai House

Year
2014
Status
Built

The colored constructions of the local vernacular architecture, as well as the pitched roof mixes well with the precise lines of modern volumes. Located in front of a beautiful beach in the city of Itacaré, in the Brazilian northeast -, the site of House Txai has a wall that reaches 13 meters above sea level. This topographical condition permits that, even with the existing treetops, it is possible to observe a beautiful view of the sea from the site. Furthermore, the lower area is susceptible to a little flooding, thus confirming the implantation of a higher point.
