English description provided by the architects.
Miners enjoy the beach and beach houses. Casa Inaê was built on Praia do Forte, Salvador, for a mining family of three siblings, six nephews, a matriarch, and many friends.
The house was inaugurated with a lot of memory and affection.
The first floor, more social, features an open layout to the backyard, pool, and forest, with fenced patios housing private gardens.
This tropical modernist-inspired layout supports a concrete tray that holds the structure and roof of the second floor.
The wooden facade is a construction and ornamental system made up of joint covers, inspired by Pataxó, caiçara, but also southern, with dispersed origins.
The chromatic treatment celebrates Iemanjá.
