The home's interiors were done by Piantina Architecture's Patricia Salles. Architectural photographer Gustavo Xavier photographed the finished results. The home is separated into four distinct blocks, which are interconnected through steel material covered in reflective glass. In the middle of the blocks rests a [garden and pool area](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-tres-patis).
