Modern Casa Nova Lima Residence by Danilo Matoso Architect

Located in the valleys of Minas Gerias, Brazil, architect Danilo Matoso has successfully built the modern house of Casa Nova Lima. The home stands on an uneven terrain which was a particular challenge for the architect. To cope with that, Danilo came up with an “odd” design that helped the house stand by using a proper weight distribution system.

To create both ambient and natural lighting, Danilo employed a broad use of glass on the facade. However, he still kept the sense of privacy although the house has more transparency. With spacious interiors clad in wood and lovely green wilderness all around, Casa Nova Lima has completely merged with its surroundings.
