When visiting the "Só Reparos" space at CASACOR Brasília 2017 , the owners of this residence fell in love with the space designed by Ângela Castilho and Alex Rodrigues so much that they decided to delegate the Rancho project to the duo. This was based on the idea of being a kind of " Xangri-lá" – a place where they and their guests would feel surrounded by an atmosphere of simplicity , yet with a lot of sophistication and comfort.

The heated pools, spacious spaces, spa and wine cellar, when combined, result in a dream home for those who want to enjoy the company of friends and create unforgettable memories of loving moments with them.

By mixing light colors over rustic textures , the duo brought comfort and simplicity to the project, with a lot of appeal to the sensory and the presence of natural light as an ally in the variations of scenic effects.

Natural fibers and craftsmanship – always highly valued in the architect's projects – provide a sense of comfort, while natural elements bring peace and serenity to the spaces.

“The idea is that people get rid of excess while they are there; things are closer to nature, closer to simplicity, while always maintaining comfort and, above all, sophistication ,” says Ângela Castilho.

“There are so many little corners there that I find delightful. I think the chapel is a beautiful thing, there is peace in it, the simplicity of it brings together the figure of Christ with light effects on him, which vary at every moment, every hour is an effect, each hour is a light, and that in itself is already a prayer ”, reveals the architect.
