Photographer Leonardo Finotti has sent us these photos of Guarujá House by architects Bernardes + Jacobsen, located in the Brazilian forest.

The house is a holiday home for a family with two children, and comprises a pavilion supported by pillars among the trees, overlooking the sea.

Accomplishing such a project was very gratifying for the architects. A big, large planned house which disappears in the forest. A great house almost unnoticed among the trees.
Heaven on Earth !
