Wooden homes possess a natural charm (no pun intended) that can make even the most hardcore modernist homeowner rethink his decision to live in stone-steel-glass fortress in the city. After all, at the end of day, we all want to go home to a warm, cozy home that offers relaxation and peace with minimal effort on the homeowner's part.


How does a wooden home do this? Well, wood is a natural insulator--it insulates heat and cold… and noise. In short, living in a wooden home saves you energy and lets you slumber in peace.


The Casa do Brezo is a single family house of Zen architecture with a built area of 119m², 77m² being dedicated to the living area and the remaining 42m² to covered terraces.
