We’re off to São Paulo, Brazil for today’s taste of design inspiration, and this one comes to us from Angelica Hoffmann Architecture and Interiors. The project we’re viewing? A two-story house done up in the modern style (with some traditional touches) that flaunts enough elegance and charm to appeal to the modern-day family. 

We’ll also be taking a look at the house’s construction stage in addition to viewing its terrace, and the front- and rear façades. Yet it is its curious location which adds to its stunning exterior beauty…

Let’s take a look!

An American-style exterior

How charming! All the expert touches (from the ceramic tiled roof right down to the snow-white window frames) give the house a polished presence. And just note how the various lines of the gabled roof play a big part in the overall aesthetic of the exterior.

During construction

Of course any gorgeous beauty had to have a not-so-beautiful phase, and this modern stunner is no exception. Looking at this image, it’s quite hard to believe that this is the beginning stages of a dream home.

Getting there

Still not there, yet we can definitely see the house starting to take shape, especially with the timber skeleton beginning to form the roof above.

What a slope!

You definitely would have noticed this house’s curious location – that sloping street required some creativity and cleverness on the part of the architects and builders, but fortunately it was a challenge that all tackled head on. 

To minimise the slanting look of the exterior front side, a concrete driveway perfectly mimicking the texture and hues of the street was added to the house.
