The entire surfasse is covered by pieces of 450,00 x 10.0 x 1.0 cm promoting the shading of the roof. The plates used are 2.0 mm thick in all parts of the construction.

On the front, sarongs and foliage as bromeliads and grasses of the pampas define a rustic ambience, with good uptake and water retention. On the back, the atmosphere is dry, with the presence of agaves, the existing mandacaru cactos, on along with stones and marble powder, warning of an undesirable future water scarcity.
