The duo placed blinds along the path to give the sensation of looking through a crack, like a curious person. However, more than just curiosity about the house, the idea was to connect the stories of the person looking with those of the resident.

Inside, the environment was designed so that people would feel happy being at home, using light colors and elements that bring relaxation.
Mixing straight lines with organic shapes, Isabela and Rodrigo incorporated a bust, flowers and natural stones into the space. Contributing even more to the relaxing atmosphere, the wood harmonizes with the other elements of the project set up at Diamondmal, in Belo Horizonte (MG).
