Osler modern house, located in Brasilia, Brazil, is a 2,906-sq.-ft. balancing act of earth, wind and water. Architect Marcio Kogan precariously perched an airy, glass-enclosed volume perpendicularly atop a natural wood-clad base, and stretching across a luxurious lap pool below. The deck surrounding the pool echoes the richly finished wood panels that cover the main level and slide apart to reveal some strategically placed windows and doorways. A warm glow invites visitors into cozy yet clean and contemporary interiors – simple and down to the detail. A modern floating wooden staircase climbs up the wall and leads to the upper glass level, where the panoramic views of the rooftop patio, the sprawling 8,578-sq.-ft. grounds and the horizon beyond, are the center of attention.
