Urubici Lodge / Luciano Lerner Basso
Urubici is a small town located in the highlands of the state of Santa Catarina, in southern Brazil. A region characterized by beautiful landscapes and mild climate, it attracts a large number of tourists seeking tranquility and contact with nature. In this context, we developed the project for a small weekend house that could comfortably accommodate a couple and, eventually, serve as a source of income for short-term rentals, such as Airbnb. The topography, vegetation, and orientation (both solar and towards the best view) were the initial guidelines of the project. Situated on a generous land area of over 20 thousand square meters, characterized by a rugged topography and a beautiful Araucaria forest (a species of Brazilian pine threatened with extinction), the house was designed so that its forms would not attempt to compete with the beauty of such perfect nature.
