Casa das Dunas

The Dune House in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, commands attention in the northeastern landscape dominated by impressive dunes that reach up to 390 feet, providing stunning panoramic views. It features fenestrated spaces arranged in a tree-like layout, powerfully symbolizing the family tree as three generations reside in this home. The architecture fosters intimate visual connections among various spaces, promoting a strong sense of togetherness among family members. The bedrooms are strategically organized in a hierarchy, all oriented in the same direction and linked by a land bridge. Similarly, the kitchen and living area connect through another land bridge, reinforcing the theme of growth—just as a tree flourishes from its roots.
