Box House by Alan Chu & Cristiano Kato

Alan Chu & Cristiano Kato designed this small construction with a simple program sited on an island of the North coast of Ilhabela at 100 meters above sea level, next to two enormous rocks, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The wood used on some doors, windows, staircase, shelves and furniture are leftovers used to mold the white box made of reinforced concrete.

The old existing one-story house with stone walls and clay roof tiles becomes a new building with 2 floors. The 3×5 meters white box is supported on one side by an existing retaining wall and on the other by a wall built with stones, a characteristic of local constructions.
