The Casa Araruama exhibits a modern design that’s sleek but still comforting due to its wood panels and exposed beams. Its pristine white stucco siding stands out and an attractive butterfly roof boosts the home’s perimeter walls and enhances ventilation inside. Expansive glazing gives the home an ultimate modern look.
The home also features a free-flowing layout where the main living space connects with each other for easy entertaining and increased family bonding. It seamlessly opens onto the outdoor spaces through oversized sliding glass doors.
The bedrooms, on the other hand, are privately secluded upstairs. It has a split-bedroom layout for optimum privacy.
