Beautiful Flower House by Mareines + Patalano Arquitetura

Leaf House is a mansion, designed by architects from Mareines + Patalano Arquitetura. This beautiful eco-friendly Brazilian flower was "planted" near Rio de Janeiro on a small beach with turquoise water. Leaf House is an ideal refuge from hot tropical climate. The roof in the form of giant petals protects from the sun, and plenty of verandas provide a perfect area for enjoying an ocean breeze. The complete absence of corridors not only promotes natural ventilation, but also creates welcoming atmosphere. The mansion is ideal for young and energetic people, as an open plan with interconnected rooms and spacious terraces give an opportunity to arrange parties and meetings with friends. True to say, it?s just an amazing masterpiece.

Green Roof Villa Ronde

As we know, there is not so much land in Japan. This condition inspires architects to create their masterpieces in limited space. The coastal house, you see on pictures below, with a garden that is located on the roof could be a great example. The project, designed by Ciel Rouge Creation, was called Villa Ronde. This complex includes a private museum, guest house and recreation area. Access to the sea creates a magnificent view. The round shape of the complex is necessary not only for aesthetic pleasure, but it also protects from strong winds which are typical for the Japanese coast. The garden on the roof creates a feeling of unity with environment and emphasizes the naturalness of the project.

The design evokes the spirit of "engawa" in the Japanese house: the sun-filled edge of dwelling that connects house to garden; inside to outside; form to spirit'.
