About Palco House

A Modern Sanctuary: Palco House

Nestled on the sands of Algodões Beach in Maraú, Brazil, stands Palco House, a 2021 marvel by Cecchi Millan Arquitetura. Designed as a haven for a young artist, this 70m2 pavilion effortlessly marries form and function with nature.

As you approach the elevated structure, the symphony of rustic wooden decking and muted hues sets a tranquil prelude. Impeccably balanced, the house rests harmoniously within the verdant landscape, promising lightness and an open embrace of the surrounding views.

Living in Harmony with Nature

Stepping through the expansive openings, you’re welcomed into a living space where the boundaries between indoors and outdoors blur. Large windows bathe the room in sunlight. Carefully chosen furnishings echo the outdoor serenity, as a plush blue sofa offers respite and the wooden dining table invites communing.

Transitioning to the integrated kitchen area, the aesthetic is consistent: crisp, yet warm. The kitchen’s minimalist design — featuring white cabinetry and sleek countertops, allows the artist’s culinary creativity to take center stage, while a window frames nature as the ever-present backdrop.

Seamless Integration: The Art of Design

The linear layout rewards exploration, leading to a pair of suites designed with privacy and tranquility in mind. Each room serves as a personal retreat, where restorative rest and inspiration go hand in hand.

Finally, step out onto the perpendicular deck to fully appreciate Palco House’s dialogue with its environment. Open to the coastal breezes and the sounds of the ocean, it’s a space that extends living quarters to the natural stage outside.

Palco House stands as a testament to Cecchi Millan Arquitetura’s vision, blending simplicity and elegance to elevate both the young artist’s home and the practice of modern beachfront architecture.
