Collina del Faro
Collina del Faro is a residential building with 8 apartments, located on a site in the foot of farol hill and next to the beach in the city of Torres-RS, in southern Brazil. It is a building that takes advantage of the natural beauties present in its surroundings to propose a dialogue between architecture and nature, achieved through the staggering of floors that, in addition to making reference to the topography itself, allow the creation of terraces with pools with a direct view of the sea for each apartment.
