Every once in a while we stumble upon an amazing looking building that is also “green” related in some way. This is the Brazilian Leaf House located right outside of Rio de Janeiro. It sits right in front of a beautiful beach which looks like something that came out of a movie. This beach house was designed by Mareines + Patalano and really came out amazing. The beach houses main concept is to look as if they where giant leafs branching out as well as a very open floor plan and landscape which is meant to encourage interaction between the people who go there and nature.
