ALVA HOUSE
 

ALVA HOUSE IS LOCATED IN MINAS, NEAR THE MARIMBONDO DAM, ON A PLOT WITH ABOUT 75 METERS OF FRONT. WITH THE INTENT TO MAKE THE MOST OF THE LOT'S DIMENSIONS AND THE VIEW TO THE DAM, AN EXTENDED VOLUME WAS OPTED, WHERE IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE TO DIRECT THE MOST IMPORTANT ROOMS TO ENJOY THIS PRIVILEGED VIEW.

BREAKING THE MONOTONY OF A LARGE SINGLE VOLUME, DIFFERENT SHAPES WERE CREATED FOR EACH SECTOR OF THE PROJECT, THE SOCIAL AREA IS DELIMITED BY A LARGE PENTHOUSE IN APPARENT CONCRETE AND THE SUITES BY INDEPENDENT BUNGALOWS, BRINGING GREATER PRIVACY BETWEEN RESIDENTS AND GUESTS.

SEARCHING FOR A UNIT IN THE WHOLE SET, A LARGE GLUMED LAMINATED WOOD ROOF UNITES THE WHOLE EXTENSION OF THE PROJECT, IN ADDITION TO HAVING THE FUNCTION OF HOUSING THE CENTRAL CIRCULATION AND PROTECTING DIRECT IMPACT ON THE FRAMES, IT BRINGS A STRIKING AND UNIQUE PERSONALITY TO THE RESIDENCE.
