The 248-square-meter house features a rustic ceramic tile floor, pizza oven, a green-roofed barbeque and a swimming pool on the terrace that overlooks the hilly Brazilian landscape. A solar heater supplies the house with warm water and completely eliminates the need for old electric showers. The entire interior is covered with a green roof which keeps it cool in the summer and contributes to the energy efficientperformance of the house.
