Experiência incrível tanto de conhecer mais sobre o artista Carlos Vilaró e suas obras como o espetáculo do tributo ao por do sol! Para mim, como arquiteta, cada pedaço da Casapueblo tem uma importância gigante… a grandiosidade desse monumento que segue a topografia da montanha e é um espetáculo à parte com suas curvas lindas que compõe a vista incrível que temos de lá! A visita vale demais!

Carlos Páez Vilaró es un tremendo artista en todo el sentido de la palabra, explora, crea, viaja, se compromete con lo que hace, goza, observa. Si va a Punta del Este no se puede perder la visita a Casa Pueblo, maravilloso
