Casa Amaro

Casa Amaro forewords by the architect:

“The contemporary 2-storey dwelling is defined by white chromatic planes, which intersect
with glass planes, and with black stone elements on the lower floor, whose black
chromatic will contaminate the interior of the house. The trivial housing program, inserts
the private areas on the upper floor of the house, and social areas on the lower floor,
with a room that shares the space with the kitchen. Due to a sharp unevenness of the
land, the entrance of the house is made through the highest area of the lot, allowing the
elevation of the house, in the lowest land area of the terrain, creating a prominent volume
in relation to the south street, and thus guaranteeing greater privacy compared to the
glazed area of the dwelling.”
