Sabana is the fourth profile of SANDRINI metalli’s SANDcustom service.

Between earth and sky

Sabana is born from the meeting of earth and sky, the raw strength of the land and the boundless expanse above it. Drawing inspiration from the ancient landscapes of the Gran Sabana, it reinterprets the timeless beauty of rock, shaped over millennia by natural forces, through a contemporary architectural vision.

Its materiality tells a story written over time. Layers, subtle tonal shifts and organic forms echo the marks left by nature across the ages. Light moves across each surface, bringing its textures into focus and revealing a sense of depth and character.

Balancing weight and lightness, the architecture becomes part of the landscape itself, rooted in its surroundings, yet defined by a distinctly contemporary expression.

Sabana invites us to look beyond the visible, where material, light and nature come together in timeless harmony.

Sabana house

Sabana House rises from the landscape like an ancient presence, shaped by time and deeply rooted in the earth. Inspired by the monumental silhouettes of the tepuis, it captures their quiet strength and the natural balance between mass and horizon.

Its metal exterior responds to light and the elements. From the outside, it takes on the tones of the surrounding landscape, while within, it shelters a space that feels both understated and welcoming.

Light moves across its surfaces like the sun over the rocky walls of the savanna, revealing ever-changing depths, textures and details. Each space is shaped by the interplay between material and landscape, openness and shelter, creating a living experience that feels both authentic and timeless.

Balancing the presence of a natural monument with the intimacy of a contemporary retreat, the architecture becomes a horizon in itself, connecting people with the raw power of nature.

The metal, shaped to evoke rock carved by the elements, becomes part of the landscape, turning every space into an invitation to slow down, to linger and to embrace the essentials.
