Conceived with the aim of minimizing its environmental impact, the house features a design that makes it appear smaller than it actually is. With a partially buried lower level housing the social and service areas, and an upper level containing the bedrooms and a living room, Casa Topo offers a unique blend of rusticity and elegance. Its exterior is clad in narrow wooden planks, while large floor-to-ceiling glass doors allow for seamless connection with the outdoors and provide stunning views of the nearby lagoon and stream.
