The Prefab Flood Proof House

Posted: 05 Sep 2010 03:56 AM PDT

The Prefab Flood Proof House by Studio Peek Ancona is located at a quarter mile from the fault that is seen in San Andreas is a unique piece of architecture in form of a house. The flood proof house stands as a prototype, to be used in flood stricken areas. Its min property is its ability to remain intact even in the aftermath of a flood or even a tsunami.

Steel frame joints are effectively used in some of its areas in order to portray its usability as a local scenario as well as a global one. The building comfortably uses thirty percent less of the materials required for the threshold of any flood proof buildings around so many places.

The main reason for its strength through flooded areas is the foundational base that it has been set on. The foundation is one that can withstand massive forces of strain, giving the building a form of stability that is extra-ordinary.

Fascinating Residence in São Paulo, Brazil

Posted: 05 Sep 2010 03:34 AM PDT

The site of this magnificent piece is on top of hill, amongst the many trees that are in São Paulo, Brazil. The foundation sets the house to spread across like a bar and is seen like a point of attraction in the city landscape. Created as a research trial of architecture, the house makes out an abstract impression of a filter. The shade given off therefore by the house is meant to be one of effect.

Large windows and balconies adorn the house, making it a wonderful place for sightseeing, as you watch the Octavio Bridge across. All this happens without necessarily distracting the ambience that is formed. As one watches through the windows that stand out in pure crystal glass, one cannot help but notice the idea of continuity that these same windows join together. Behind this watch are found the ever entertaining TV room, dining and other domestic appliances. { Drucker Arquitetura }
