How many architectural gems do the gates spread across cities hide? In São Paulo, in the Alto da Boa Vista neighborhood, one of them was unveiled: a 1,000 m² house signed by the architect Vilanova Artigas.
The 1974 residence has two floors and no stairs. The floors are connected by ramps and the integration between them is impressive. With generous ceiling height and half walls, from one floor it is possible to see the rooms on the other floor without difficulty. And all of them, with concrete walls, are surrounded by large panes of glass that allow sunbathing in the home.
