The renovation of this townhouse, located on a quiet street in São Paulo, is based on the premise that intervening is also a form of preservation. In a context of climate crisis and resource scarcity, the project proposes reusing and adapting the existing construction as an essential sustainability strategy, avoiding material waste and the carbon emissions inherent in demolition and new construction.

The expansion project of CPP College arises from the need to adapt the school space to new usage demands, respecting the identity of the original architectural ensemble, which was also designed by our office. The main question was to understand how to intervene in an already established architecture, adding value without compromising the existing language and harmony.

Verde School / Ricardo Gusmao Arquitetos + Guido Otero Arquitetura

Escola Verde´s new unit is located on Canal 6, 50 meters from the beach. In addition to its proximity to the beach, the strategic position of the land within the block also provided important elements for the project: it used to be an empty space between high rise vertical buildings facing the sea and a village of houses facing the mainland. The school building thus operates at the boundary between the scales of the neighbors and seeks ways to relate to the canal and the sea, creating a unique environment for students and the local community.
