Casa Dos Playas sits between jungle and Pacific in Nosara, Costa Rica, a house by Salagnac Arquitectos that leans into earth, breeze, and shade. The project organizes family life across three low volumes, using fired clay brick and a lifted wood frame to temper heat and humidity while keeping daily routines close to the garden. Everything orients toward balance rather than spectacle, with construction choices driving both climate comfort and a calm interior mood.
