Guaruja Peninsula House

Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, the Guaruja Peninsula House is a coastal retreat in São Paulo. The dwelling is made from a series of volumes staked on the rocky shoreline. A concrete rectangular base sits on a foundation of stilts for minimal impact on the land while a triangular volume is suspended above. Housing the private areas, their solid facades conceal the home's more intimate rooms from onlookers. Public living spaces are located in a transparent void between the two volumes, allowing for expansive views of the landscape. The glazing opens out to a poolside terrace floating above the sea below.

Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni Robot Cleaner

Many robot vacuums are circular, which is a great shape for wheels and pretty bad for cleaning corners. Ecovacs' Deebot X2 Omni has a slim, square-shaped design that allows it to clean edge-to-edge while sneaking underneath chairs, tables, and other low-clearance items. An onboard dual-laser LiDAR system maps its surroundings and effortlessly avoids obstacles while automatically raising and lowering the mop, and the charging station also empties the bin and reloads the cleaning solution for a hands-free experience. Save up to $400 on the DEEBOT X2 OMNI during the holiday season.
