Modern Wooden House Villa Isabella Brasil Arquitetura

Brasil Arquitetura have projected this Modern Wooden House Vila Isabella in Hanko, Finland. This 330 sqm modern wooden house project was completed in 2007. The building displays a personality of its own in between the bleak and untouched nature, without imposing itself onto her. Its integration into the landscape will be orchestrated according to the seasons, to varying light conditions and functional circumstances, and the experience of the materials, colors and structural elements will be transformed. Interiors are a reflection of the house surrounding exterior – woody, rocky and earthy – only with a decidedly refined touch.

For us it is impossible to imagine modern Brazilian architecture without thinking about the strong influence of Finland in the form of the exceptional works of Alvar Aalto. When we consider our architectural origins, or our referential network, we come across structures, spatial concepts, constructional principles, use of materials and relationships with nature and urbanity, shared with Finnish architectural practice.

Our proposal can be said to want to appear and disappear; it locates itself frankly and resolutely in the territory. At the same time, through its materiality which always keeps in mind the aspect of aging and weathering in the severe Finnish climates, it mimics the forest, camouflaged, yet never withdrawing itself completely.
