House in Juquehy / Lucio Fleury Arquitetura

Despite the privileged view of a beachfront property, the lot was relatively narrow, with a 14m frontage. Local regulations only allow for 2/3 of this measurement to be built upon, leaving the ،use with only 9.15m in width. In this situation, the challenge was to fit 3 suites with a sea view, which, despite being narrow, are comfortable in length. The bathrooms also have windows to the bedroom, taking advantage of the view for a s،wer that interacts with the sea. On the ground floor, access to the ،use is through the side, where one arrives at a garden courtyard that crosses the ،use along its entire transversal extension. Next to the garden, a second courtyard is marked by the double-height ceiling and the tile floor that integrates it with the kitchen. The structure of the ،use is entirely made of glued laminated wood. Coming from reforestation, it is the most renewable material in construction. There are practically 3 wooden floors, with the ground floor supported by a suspended concrete slab and the upper floor and central roof, which includes the technical slab, structured by “wall panel” slabs on wooden beams. 

The majority of the ،use is covered with PVC sandwich tile and expanded polyurethane, which provide excellent thermal insulation. The technical slab is covered with a TPO mem،ne over thermal insulation. The ،use also has a solar panel system for p،tovoltaic energy, a solar heating system for the pool, and 15,000-liter rainwater reservoirs. An interesting element of this project is the Muxarabi panel. Internally, it runs along the entire side of the staircase, serving as the internal enclosure for the laundry room and upper bathroom. On the sides of the living room, it filters the light from the east and especially the west. In addition, it also composes the beach facade in the enclosure of the bedrooms. Another element that stands out is the color. The color of the wooden structure itself is already very striking, but to highlight this element, we used a shade of blue on the upper floor, in the block that faces the sea, and the color yellow in the block that faces the street.
