House of the Week 120: Useche Residence

The house of architect Pedro Useche is located in the wealthy district of Morumbi - one of the highest points in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Construction of the 3-storey 1,000m² residence began in 1999 and took 4 years to complete. The very simple yet contemporary design incorporates traditional and humble materials from the city of São Paulo and is finished with furniture designed by the architect.
