Canopy House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Mon, 09 Dec 2024 14:00:00 +0000

The position of this house has been meticulously planned not to disturb the surrounding nature, and to respect the strict construction footprint. The site with steep slopes amidst a tropical forest, posed a challenge during the design and construction processes. Access points, views and feasibility had to be carefully balanced.

San Josep Villas / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Mon, 02 Dec 2024 03:00:00 +0000

MK27's first private houses in the Mediterranean pay homage to the scenery and the know-how of local vernacular architecture. The four white volumes, distributed over a 33,000 sqm terrain, host two houses and two flats. They were settled with respect to existing walls and plateaus, favoring water retention for the local arid gardens, and completed with two common swimming pools to enhance the site experience.

Patios House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Wed, 11 Sep 2024 14:00:00 +0000

Those who come from the sea hardly notice the volume of the Patios House at the foot of a verdant mountain. The thin slab that divides the green from the sand shelters an almost invisible house, dissolved in the landscape.

Flag House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Wed, 04 Sep 2024 07:00:00 +0000

The main challenge of this project was to create a strong connection between internal and external spaces, typical of studio mk27 project in tropical climate, but in this case, in Whistler, a ski station in Canada where winters are harsh.

Blue House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Casa Azul is a case study on how to build amidst lush and protected nature, without damaging it. The land is located in Serra do Guararu, a coastal region of the Atlantic Forest in the state of São Paulo, just 500 meters away from Iporanga Beach. As it is an environmental protection area, the architecture had to work within strict parameters to fully preserve the existing landscape.

Patina Maldives Hotel / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Sat, 31 Dec 2022 13:00:00 +0000

No man is an island entire of itself. How to build a space where hospitality provides the romance and deep contact with nature but still boosts social encounters? How to lead people to really share with one another this extreme experience of one of the most remote places on the planet?

Minas House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Wed, 30 Nov 2022 06:00:00 +0000

Minas House is Studio mk27’s first project in Minas Gerais, inland Brazil. Right outside Belo Horizonte, which means beautiful horizon, the house hovers above the Minas Gerais mountains. Set on an especially steep site, two concrete slabs draw strong horizontal lines. To lift it up to 10 meters above ground, a sequence of stilts emerges, disguised amidst the tree trunks of the garden that reconstitutes the original rainforest. Drawing a clear contrast with the neighboring pharaonic embankment walls, occupying such a dramatic site, suspending the house on stilts allows for rainwater to drain and for the house to breathe.

Vista House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Wed, 22 Jun 2022 06:00:00 +0000

Sculpted by the lagging and constant action of Bahia's waters, Trancoso’s sea scarps stand before alluring beaches and their vivid colors. Vista House lays on top of one of them; a 46 meters high cliff. From a bird’s perspective, the elongated volume aims to frame the landscape like a wide-angle camera.

Sand House / studio mk27

Susanna Moreira — Thu, 22 Jul 2021 07:00:00 +0000

There are limits, such as the ocean, that appear to our eyes and soul like boundless openings. When confronted with these powerful natural elements, architecture must also open itself and project towards the limit. The house on the Sand, with its extraordinary view to the Atlantic Ocean in the northeast of Brazil, undertakes this venture.

Lima House / studio mk27

Pilar Caballero — Thu, 10 Dec 2020 18:00:00 +0000

Lima House is studio mk27’s first project in Lima, Peru. Located on an urban site, measuring 16m width by 30m depth, the main idea was to first create the sensation for the clients of living in a townhouse, taking into consideration all the possibilities that we had relative to the arrangement and size of the plot, and its occupancy coefficient.

3V House / studio mk27

Valeria Silva — Thu, 23 Apr 2020 14:00:00 +0000

3V House is located in a gardened neighbourhood in São Paulo, which was built on an old floodplain area. This condition brought us to the solution of slightly elevating the property land and its garden relative to the street level, thereby protecting it from the flooding rains that this area is subject to.

Fasano Itaim Residential / studio mk27

Pilar Caballero — Tue, 14 Jan 2020 17:00:00 +0000

After many years of having designed the Fasano Hotel in the Jardins Neighbourhood, we were invited to design the interiors of Fasano’s new mixed-use development in the Itaim region. Recognized worldwide as a family operation offering gastronomy and hospitality at their best, Fasano’s history spans more than 100 years, with locations in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Belo Horizonte, fazenda boa vista, Angra dos reis and Punta del Este, in Uruguay.

C+C House / Studio MK27 - Marcio Kogan + Samanta Cafardo

Pilar Caballero — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 08:00:00 +0000

With camouflaged openings, C + C House is a balanced game between full and empty. Its land, located in a very leafy neighborhood in the city of São Paulo, has a narrow and long way with buildings on the sides, and guided the project openings forwards and back. This solution was chosen not only to guarantee the best use of the terrain, but also to guarantee the views, ventilation and insolation in the interiors.

Gama Issa V2.0 / studio mk27

Rayen Sagredo — Tue, 25 Sep 2018 11:00:00 +0000

Ten o'clock at night. Very hot. I take this rare moment of calm and solitude to draw the new house. From the radio, which I'll turn off in ten seconds, it's about the last kidnapping and a prisoner rebellion. I read my notes from the first customer meeting, a couple of advertisers.

Planar House / studio mk27

Daniel Tapia — Thu, 07 Jun 2018 05:00:00 +0000

Planar House is a radical exercise in horizontality, aspect commonly explored in the projects of the studio. Discreetly inserted in the highest point of the plot and favoring the existing topography, its presence is most strongly felt in the footprint rather than volumetrically. An extensive line in an open landscape.

micasa vol.C / studio mk27

Rayen Sagredo — Mon, 21 May 2018 09:00:00 +0000

MiCasa Vol.C is a single open space that completes the existing furniture store complex in São Paulo. The complex consists of the original store, Vol.A, the annex designed by studio mk27 in 2007, Vol.B, and now the new space called Vol.C.

Pasqua House / studio mk27

Daniel Tapia — Tue, 08 May 2018 09:00:00 +0000

The Pasqua House, in Fazenda da Boa Vista, Porto Feliz, has a ground floor plan, in an "L" shape, a totally permeable volume with direct access to the garden. These crossed volumes implantation takes advantage of the terrain and marks the difference between the social and intimate uses of the residence. The leaked element, which has become the trademark of the project, provides privacy without barring the landscape, and brings emotion throughout the day, as the passage of time is marked by the entrance of light, which arrives with different intensities and makes drawings of light and shade on the floor.
