Casa Branca is a tropical beach house designed by Studio MK27 in collaboration with Eduardo Chalabi. Comfort and building maintenance throughout the years are two fundamental aspects for houses built in tropical areas next to the sea, where the high temperatures and the effect of the sea air determine the extreme local conditions. The Casa Branca project, located on a beautiful Brazilian beach, on the northern coast of São Paulo, made these questions as determinant to organize the plan and for the selection of materials to be used.

CasaBranca是由MK 27工作室与Eduardo Chalabi合作设计的热带海滩别墅。这些年来，舒适和建筑物维护是在靠近海洋的热带地区建造的房屋的两个基本方面，在那里，高温和海洋空气的影响决定了极端的当地条件。Casa Branca项目位于圣保罗北部海岸一个美丽的巴西海滩上，该项目将这些问题作为制定计划和选择使用材料的决定性因素。

All of the ambients have floor-ceiling window frames – in the spans, like true walls of sliding glass – to create a pleasant thermal sensation and blur the division between interior and exterior. In the living room on the ground floor, for example, 3.0 X 2.5 glass doors are built into the walls and integrate the indoor space with the balcony,,in this way creating cross ventilation with the aim of reducing the room temperature. In this same space, wooden perforated doors – like large muxarabis – shade the interior without blocking the breeze.

所有的环境都有地板-天花板窗框-在跨度，就像真正的墙壁滑动玻璃-创造一种愉快的热感觉，并模糊了内部和外部的划分。例如，在底层的起居室，在墙壁上安装了3.0×2.5的玻璃门，并将室内空间与阳台结合起来，从而创造了交叉通风，以降低室温。在同样的空间里，木制的穿孔门-就像大胡同的门-遮住了室内，没有阻挡微风。

On the ground floor we find the entire social area of the house, even the kitchen which faces one of the side gardens. The first floor, in turn, houses the bedrooms. And lastly, there is a terrace garden with deck on the roof – accessible by a flight of stairs protected by a hatch door.

在底层，我们发现了房子的整个社会区域，甚至是面对一个花园的厨房。第一层依次是卧室。最后，还有一个在屋顶上有甲板的露台花园--通过受舱口门保护的楼梯可以到达。

Warm materials are meshed into the metal brises, shading the room on the upper volume. The combination of the wood, concrete and white aluminum (resistant to the effects of the sea air) end up creating, in the architecture of this house a tropical minimalism, with great influence of Brazilian modernism.

温暖的材料被网在金属砖上，把房间遮住在上面的音量上。木材，混凝土和白色铝(抵抗海洋空气的影响)的结合，最终在这所房子的建筑中创造了热带极简主义，具有巴西现代主义的巨大影响。
