Built in São José dos Campos, Brazil, in 2015, the garden of this house looks out onto the Mantiqueira Mountains.
With vast expanses of glass opening the living spaces out to the surrounding landscape, it was ideal for the couple who commissioned it, who were seeking a place for contemplation and reflection.
