Yoshi House: Split-Level Brick Design by AR Arquitetos
Completed in 2024, Yoshi House is a residential development by AR Arquitetos, crafted by architects Marina Acayaba and Juan Pablo Rosenberg. This 407 m² residence is strategically positioned on a slope that descends towards the forest at the rear of the lot. The terrain has been transformed into split levels constructed from solid brick to serve the social spaces. Above these areas, a sleek engineered wood framework supports a horizontal roof that seamlessly aligns with the street level. The project team comprised Ana Flávia Piacentini, Bianca Rimer, Franco Peviani, and Murillo Felizardo, with photography by Fran Parente. Curated by Susanna Moreira, it was highlighted on ArchDaily under the categories of Residential Architecture and Houses.
