Villa in Paraguay

Architectural bureau BAUEN designed a 483 square meter villa in San Bernardino, Paraguay. The residence is built on a hillside slope near a lake, offering owners seclusion in nature's embrace while only requiring 45 minutes to reach the capital, Asuncion.

Concrete finishes combined with partially untreated metal provide texture and aesthetic appeal to the structure. A respectful approach to the natural environment is expressed through maximal interior openness and the placement of accents on surrounding vegetation as key decorative elements. Architects show that competing with nature's perfection and beauty is impossible; instead, one should simply contemplate it.
