Outdoor, Back Yard, Large Pools, Tubs, Shower, Trees, and Gardens The house of 330m² has a simple program besides the 4 suites. With no swimming pool nor leisure area defined by a covered space, a different request was highlighted: a charcoal American grill should be in the yard, along with an outdoor furniture that could comfortably accommodate the family, making the uncovered yard the real living room, but even nicer, since this one is open-air. The horizontal volume of the house integrates the wide eaves that surround the façades and are essential to the protection against solar radiation, providing shady areas and, consequently, a raise on the thermal comfort inside the building.
