The residence ZB is located in the city of Jaraguá do Sul, Santa Catarina, Brazil. The terrain with great inclination has a total area of ​​approximately 1,400 m2.

The request of the owners included a large, comfortable, modern house and different house  that made good use of the city's landscape.

Although the terrain was very rugged, it already had a natural plateau which was chosen for the implantation of the residence. That portion of the lot is 6 meters high in relation to the street level, which allows the garage floor located on the intermediate level to connect both the city and the private spaces.

Although the house is accessible through the east façade, it is towards the north side that the landscape of the city is opened and, where all the social environments of the residence have been organized, including the outdoor area with a wooden terrace and a pool.
