i like this house its my dream house to be. I love everything on this house, the interior is very creative and its brings earthy feeling once you walk by on this house, the outside scene welcome you. The outside and inside design blends well together as if they are incorporating each other.

How does the top floor span so far over the outdoor living space, is it really just a beam or does the upper floor act as a truss? Or does one side cantilever over the wall, reducing the stress on that span?

I love the outdoors/in feeling and the sense of open flow. The stonework is beautiful and the inclusion of water and all the green. But the furnishings should be warmer. The overall feeling is of a public space, not a home.

Joe, this house was built for someone that wanted their house to be like this. They did not want Gaudi or Art Nouveau, they wanted this.

You might not enjoy this house, but that’s fine, because this house is not yours, and it was not built for you. This home is for the people who love it, and there are many who love it, even if you don’t.

I hope that one day we outgrow the “machine for living” paradigm and its obsession with linearity for its own sake. This is another formulaic, T-square exercise that seems to dominate today’s architecture. Are designers so impoverished in originality that they cannot create forms and space that celebrate the human element foremost? Enough with cold rectangular surfaces and monotony of shapes and textures, with aseptic cages as barren and depressing as a surgical amphitheater. There should be a grant for student architects to go to Barcelona and absorb Gaudi, to Paris and Prague and breathe in Art Nouveau. There is more to architecture than the Bauhaus codex. Save this kind of building for industry and the military. Build Homes for people, not trendy, minimalist habitats that even gerbils would find tedious.

Absolutely Stunning! I want to see more..so I went to Marcio’s website but it’s so “creative” you can’t make heads or tails of it, if you don’t speak portuguese. Someone send him an email to tell him he has non-South American fans!!!!!

Seems inspired by Neutra’s Kaufman house in Palm Springs, yet updated with modern concepts. Not only in its aesthetic, but its function. Beautiful.

One of the nicest homes I’ve seen so far (and I’ve seen a lot!). The ultimate in indoor/ outdoor living. Beautiful light and landscaping. The wood is warm and those wonderful stonewalls add texture – very warm, not cold at all.
Funny how different the perception can be!

The armony of the materials, the light and the horizontal lines of this house has fascinated me.

Show us your work in Nevada and let’s discuss the caste system/crime problem in Las Vegas.

Just stunning in every way.Are they in a gated community?…or one that’s heavily patrolled?
I hear stories about the caste system/crime problem down there.
