Resende Villas and Barracuda Beach Hotel & Villas / UDesign Projetos e Consultoria + Cavani Arquitetos

Susanna Moreira — Sun, 27 Jun 2021 11:00:00 +0000

On accepting the responsibility of creating a Hotel-Residential project in a site with such beauty – an idyllic sanctuary open to the sea and protected by the Atlantic forest – a guideline immediately comes to mind: to respect and to emphasize the beauty of the place and its views, not only of the ocean but also of the preserved forest surrounding it, looking to integrate the project with the landscape instead of imposing itself into it.

Cristobal Rojas — Tue, 20 Dec 2016 09:00:00 +0000

Jungle House / studio mk27

Florencia Mena — Thu, 07 Jul 2016 09:00:00 +0000

The project is located on the paulista shore in the region of the Rain Forest and the land has a mountainous topography with dense vegetation. The introduction of this house to this landscape has the objective of optimizing the connection between architecture and nature, privileging the view looking out to the ocean and the incidence of sunlight in the internal spaces. Furthermore, the positioning of the house on the site obeyed the previously-open area in the vegetation.

Casa Delta / Bernardes Arquitetura

Igor Fracalossi — Mon, 20 Apr 2015 10:00:48 +0000

Commissioned by a couple with three young children, this weekend house, located one and a half hours from São Paulo, is built on sloped terrain surrounded by an important Atlantic Forest reserve, in a plot allowed for building purposes.

Cristian Aguilar — Sat, 03 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

Rodeio is a very traditional “churrascaria” (steakhouse) in São Paulo, Brazil. After 60 years’ operation, it opened its first branch in a high-rise building and sought a contemporary ambience.

Saraiva Bookstore / Studio Arthur Casas

Cristian Aguilar — Mon, 06 Oct 2014 01:00:00 +0000

Saraiva Bookstore was conceived as a hybrid between a public square and a library, a place for conviviality, leisure, concentration and rest at the same time. Its architecture is simple and inviting, it aims to disappear behind the books to let the mind wander about their content. A 21st century space, books and new medias share the shelves, demanding a high level of layout flexibility. To organize this myriad of information without creating a monotonous store was as much a challenge as stimulating people to stay, read and interact in a cozy atmosphere.

Bernarda Luis / NITSCHE ARQUITETOS

Cristian Aguilar — Sat, 24 May 2014 00:00:00 +0000

The Bernarda Luiz house condominium was conceived to conciliate the tranquility, security and cosiness of a village with the exclusivity and privacy of an isolated house.

Studio R / Marcio Kogan

Nico Saieh — Fri, 04 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000

Facing a small urban square, the Loft Studio opens entirely to the outside. The inner space of this photography studio flows into the side gardens of the building and into the urban space, establishing a spatial continuity between the square and the building. The façade, an aluminum gate is recessed into the concrete binding, integrating the front patio with the square; further, two large swinging metal gates – each more than 11 meters wide – permit fluidity between the gardens and the open space of the studio.
