המשרד הברזילאי ברונו רוסי אדריכלים מעצב ביתן בקוביות בטון ואלמנטים חלולים. בסאו פאולו - ברזיל, ממוקמת בחלק הפנימי של מדינת סאו פאולו, חוות קציר התפוזים אשר ביקשה ממשרדי ברונו רוסי אדריכלים, לפתח חלל שיקבל את עובדי השטח שלה. החלל בשטח של 80 מ''ר, ההצעה הייתה לשלב את המבנה בסביבה ולהביא מחסה למשתמשים מבלי לנתק את החלל מהטבע.

The program has changing rooms, kitchen and dining area, in addition to serving as a space where employees find rest, and relaxation. The project is inspired by the concrete block, so traditional in brazilian architecture. Its dimensions are modulated according to the dimensions of this material, which was used as a structural element of the work.

In the main elevations, the concrete block works as a hollow element, creating a filter between the internal and external areas, dialoguing eith the different incidences of sunlight throughout the day. According to Bruno Rossi, “the hollow element in the gables dissolves the limits, allowing the colors of the surroundings, ventilation and natural lighting to enter the environment, without a physical barrier”. 
Having the concrete blocks as protagonists of the project, it was decided to keep them in their original appearance, without any other coatings or painting. The other materials, such as a slab in prefabricated concrete slabs, granite flooring and glass enclosures were the choices that maintained the neutrality of these elements. 

In the evening time, the building lights up and emanates light through its hollow gables, bringing a point of reference in the field without interfering with the natural shadows, also offering comfort to the local fauna.
