The Lattice Forest House is one of those rare designs that manages to be both rooted and light, solid and open. Sited within a pine forest, the house uses two distinct brick systems: a patterned brick lattice wall (claustral) that filters light and air through its perforated face, and a load-bearing massive brick structure that gives the building its strength and thermal stability.
On the ground floor, the layout unfolds around generous, interconnected spaces — a kitchenette, a living area, open-air loggias, and outdoor decking that extends naturally to a lagoon-style swimming pool. Tropical planting beds are woven directly into the plan, bringing the landscape inside. A cross-section through the house reveals a dramatic double-height atrium at its heart, with the upper floor accessed above.
The foundation is cast-in-place concrete, and timber decking bridges the indoor-outdoor threshold throughout the property. The complete blueprint package includes a site plan, ground floor plan, section view, and a detailed key for all materials — everything needed to understand how this house is put together.
