Sumit Singhal Sumit Singhal loves modern architecture. He comes from a family of builders who have built more than 20 projects in the last ten years near Delhi in India. He has recently started writing about the architectural projects that catch his imagination.
Casa Galpão in Nova Lima, Brazil by Marcos Franchini / Nattalia Bom Conselho
The house was designed for a young couple who requested the use of simple materials in an easily readable space, so that the family’s identity would be printed from the objects and furniture placed on the site and the routine in the new home.
From the entrance to the terrain, on a slope, it is possible to see the construction of two floors in steel structure with sealing in exposed concrete blocks as well as the large glass panels.
The thermo-acoustic roof, structured through steel trusses, reinforces the use of industrialized prefabricated materials, as well as hydraulic, lighting and energy systems, in addition to the use of cement on all floors and countertops in waterproofed concrete.
On the first floor, a large terrace articulates the external space with the building’s social area, integrating the kitchen, dining and living room, toilet and office in addition to the pool, which is an apparent concrete tank. There is also, on this floor, a service area at the rear of the building and an accessible guest suite.
