Resting on Stones with the Charm of the Mountains | Cancha House

Cancha House rests on existing rocks, naturally integrating with the mountainous landscape. Designed by Estúdio HAA!, the house features 46-foot CLT beams, creating a light structure that appears to float above the terrain. It consists of two adjacent blocks—one social and transparent, the other more private and clad in ebonized wood—maximizing the panoramic view of Pedra do Baú. Prefabricated elements and a wood-burning stove ensure practicality and comfort, while a shipping container accommodates guests and service areas.
