Carapicuiba House is one good example of unusual houses. Architects Angelo Bucci and Alvaro Puntoni used geographical situation on the site and designed this interesting modern home with home office connected to the house.


The house is hidden, built in the 6m depression below the street level while the only visible part, home office is built on top of it. Using steel bridges and staircases, architects connected those two separated parts into one object.
