Brazilian architecture studio, Studio MK27 has unveiled its new development. Located in Brasília, on top of one of the Paranoá Lake estuaries, the concrete house takes inspiration from Brazil's history of modernism.

The boxy house is suspended on stilts over a narrow pool, with sliding doors that lead to an open above ground terrace. The interior is kept simple, with wooden furnishings and one tiled accent wall designed by famed Brazilian artist Athos Bulcão.

Explaining the concept, the architects behind the project told Dezeen, "the house is a poetic commentary on modern architecture, above all on Brazilian modernism, starting from a contemporary re-reading of the building materials and techniques."
