Overview
Despite maintaining the characteristics of the fishing village of Caraíva, Caraíva 04 was created seeking luxury in the perfect simplicity of nature. The project provides cross ventilation, which keeps the house always airy and cool even on the hottest days in Bahia. It uses concepts and constructive elements that reinforce this philosophy, such as:
- Circle pit of banana trees for gray water treatment, examples of social technology for rural sanitation, preserving the integrity of the water table;
- Skylight for natural lighting;
- Solar plate for water heating;
- Deck in reused demolition wood;
Architectural design: Vivian Hunnicutt & associated
Location
Located within the village of Caraíva, 200m from the beach.
