Single Wall is a residence located in Angra dos Reis, Brazil. The house is organized by one continuous pressed bamboo wall, 80 meters long. The wall separates leisure and service areas, conceals technical spaces, and supports the suspended bedroom volume. Exposed concrete, pressed bamboo, and Brazilian marble are the main materials. Post tensioned concrete allows a free span of 12.5 meters and a cantilever of 6.5 meters. Glass panels retract fully, joining interior and exterior. Cross ventilation, natural light, and shading provide comfort without artificial systems.
