20. Jungle HouseThis balcony in the beach town of Guarujá, Brazil, provides treehouse-like views into the lush forest. The architects chose Accoya wood for the decking and a minimalist style that complements and puts the focus upon the view. Notable detail: Clear glass railings maintain the most open view possible.See more of this home
BackyardIn the backyard, a tiered lawn slopes gently away from the house, accentuated with raw steel beams. The repetition of the beams set into the lawn echoes the lines of the home’s architecture, bringing the geometry of the metal-edged windows into the landscape. A gravel patio sits close to the house, with outdoor furniture placed to overlook the garden and views. Around the corner, on a second smaller gravel patio, the clients can enjoy outdoor cooking on the grill.

The architects made two major additions to the original structure: a fifth trullo and the pièce de résistance, a glass cube that adds a contemporary touch to the historic locale and serves as a winter garden.The cube is about 13 feet (4 meters) tall and houses an ancient olive tree. “In these areas, olive groves are usually outside the perimeter of the lived-in property,” Cicchetti says. “To make better use of these beautiful trees, we moved 13 of them from their original location so they could be seen and enjoyed from each window of the home.” The cube protects the olive tree over winter. The tree gets fresh air from two large doorways on opposite sides of the structure.
