Discover Fig Tree House, a striking hillside home by Estúdio Lava in Angra dos Reis, Brazil. This semicircular residence spans two-hundred square meters and is crafted from glued-laminated pine, granite, and bamboo. Elevated walkways curve through the rainforest, terraces align with the sun’s path, and panoramic views stretch toward the ocean horizon. Fig Tree House demonstrates that architecture can float between trees, honor the terrain, and embrace sustainability with precision and poetry.
