O'Neil Ford Duograph Series, Volume 2: Brazil - House in Rio Bonito, House in Santa Teresa

February 2009

This is the second volume in the O'Neil Ford Duograph Series, which selects two contrasting projects in order to explore the best of today's overlooked global architecture. Two residential buildings by Brazilian architects are studied in-depth in this volume. Invisible from the street, Angelo Bucci's house reveals itself in sequences until one reaches the highest point and 360-degree views. Carla Juacaba's vacation house in a remote, virgin forest is a small solitaire.
