Paula House Uses Concrete Screens to Temper the Sunset

Paula House Uses Concrete Screens to Temper the Sunset

Paula House is a house in São Paulo, Brazil, designed by Luciano Kruk arquitectos. Set within a development on the city’s outskirts, it responds to a landscape of lagoon, golf course, and garden with a low, carefully organized plan. The owners’ interest in Brazilian art and culture helped shape a home intended to reflect daily life while keeping a clear architectural focus.

Whitefish Poolhouse & Gallery by CTA | Cushing Terrell

The Whitefish Poolhouse & Gallery is perched on a steep slope high above Whitefish Lake. Through the process of design, CTA‘s client chose a more contemporary feel, with the focus being on the 75-ft. single-lane lap pool, a Japanese soaking tub, a changing/shower area, an exercise room and a fine art gallery. The structure appears as a small collection of buildings situated along the hillside and nesting themselves into the contours where appropriate, but boldly contrasting the grades by extending portions of the building out over the steep slope.
