The project was designed to stimulate introspection and connection with our essence , and to achieve this, the architect made use of natural elements, such as wood, stone, water, fire and, of course, the abundant vegetation that exists.

The curved design and organic shapes were also heavily explored in the furniture, carpentry, lighting and main rug in the room – to increase the feeling of comfort, coziness and fluidity of the spaces.

For the same reason, the décor's color palette ranges from natural tones of off-white , beige, olive green and gray, with touches of terracotta, present in the porcelain flooring, clay tiles with a rustic finish, loose pebbles, wooden linings, cobogós and cotton, linen and leather upholstery.
