C宅位于圣保罗的中部，是少有的禁止建造高层建筑的街区之一。该地块又窄又深，这使得制作一个具有露天空间和花园的项目的任务更加困难。撤退的时间很短，为了满足客户对可以感受自然的房子的要求，我们不得不重新考虑方案的分布。
C House is located in the central part of São Paulo, in one of the rare neighborhoods where it is forbidden to build high rises. The plot is narrow and deep, which renders the task of making a project with open-air spaces and gardens more difficult. Retreats are short and, in order to meet the client’s demands for a house where he could feel nature, we had to rethink the distribution of the program.
所有的服务区都被移到了地下室，从而为底层的公共区域释放了空间。侧墙用石头覆盖，一个线性花园模糊了视觉界限，创造了深度。大的结构跨度和玻璃推拉门增强了公共区域的户外感觉。客厅、餐厅和厨房是连续的，从花园和沿侧墙的天顶开口接受自然光照。
All service areas where displaced to the basement, thus liberating space for common areas in the ground floor. The sidewalls were covered with stone and a linear garden blurs visual limits, creating depth. The feeling of being outside in the common areas is enhanced by large structural spans and sliding glass doors. Living room, dining room and kitchen are continuous, receiving natural illumination from the garden and the zenithal opening along the side wall.
楼梯由浮动的木质台阶组成，由钢缆悬挂在入口走廊上方，呈直线连接所有三个楼层。在一楼，有三个卧室和一个家庭影院。木板条制成的面板提供了对附近房屋的视觉保护，保留了自然光和通风。
Stairs are made of floating wooden steps suspended by steel cables above the entrance corridor, in a straight line connecting all three floors. In the first floor, there are three bedrooms and a home theater. Panels made of wood laths offer visual protection from nearby houses, preserving natural light and ventilation.
使这所房子与众不同的是它的屋顶。它位于树冠旁边，被一个花园覆盖，有休息和休闲的区域，可以看到圣保罗的天际线，非常有趣。花园是城市混乱中的绿洲，它有一个水盆，通过保留隐私的景观设计，为家庭创造了一个宽松的氛围。第五个立面成为漂浮在城市中的一个小广场。
What makes this house exceptional is its rooftop. Located next to tree canopies, it is covered by a garden with areas for resting and leisure, with an interesting view of São Paulo’s skyline. An oasis amidst urban chaos, the garden has a water basin and creates a generous atmosphere for the family with a landscape design that preserves privacy. The fifth facade becomes a small plaza floating in the city.
