However, the view of the interior is completely obscured to those looking from outside.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-167034 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.designdiffusion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/75410-preview_low_6105-1_75410_sc_v2com.jpg\" alt=\"casamirador savassi\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Casamirador Savassi&#8217;s aluminum panels feature large windows of different sizes<\/strong>, which create different geometric shapes on the fa\u00e7ade. Moreover, each opening enables the proper passage of natural light and ventilation into the interior of the houses; thus, air conditioning is optimized to save energy.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the pyramidal building rests on a V-shaped pillar inspired by the designs of Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer.
