One morning I wanted to catch a sunrise over the Golden Gate Bridge. Unfortunately the fog had other plans.
Made for an amazing stroll over the bridge though.

This Project was designed for a young family with two small children in Lago Sul Qi 25, in Brasília, Brazil. To meet the established program, the residence is 808 m², divided into three levels on the ground, adapting to the topography of the site.
