Excerpt: Villa House Renovation, designed by Bruno Rossi Arquitetos, reorganizes and dissolves the fragmentation to prioritize natural light and ventilation. The demolished areas allowed a sense of unity to the spaces, visual and real connection for them. The used materials, such as concrete, steel and wood, are also a support for the art collection and the antiquarian objects that the family had interest in.
