Designed by the wonderful Marcio Kogan, the Punta House in Uruguay effortlessly blends the outside and within; nature with man-made. Crafting a subtle but strong ambiance in the living space, the residence is shielded from prying eyes on one side, and completely open on the other. Likewise, the harsh stone, glass and concrete meld perfectly with much softer wood and interiors.
