Eagle Rock House

Residential building as a tribute to the historic street name “Beco da Pedra de Águia” (Eagle Rock). The energetically self-sufficient building complex on a hillside plot is made of sandblasted exposed concrete that imitates the rough texture of the rock. The architecture, inspired by a curved eagle's wing, conveys the dynamic movement of flight and seems to be partially lifted off the ground. Large expanses of glazing offer a clear view of the lagoon, the ocean and the surrounding nature.
