Architecture, Building and Structure Design Casa Acqua Residential House by Cristina Menezes Casa Acqua was designed in the same way as the first Roman dwellings. Those discovered under the petrified lavas of the Vesuvius volcano that had an O-shaped floor plan and an inner courtyard; balconies around the rooms that allowed the visual integration of spaces. This typology was exploded and adapted to current times and, above all, rethought for this real moment of pandemic, for the Casa Acqua project in Brazil. The project has four modules with an internal patio. This individualized implantation, surrounded by water mirrors, elements of aesthetic interest, brings privacy and comfort.
