The owner is an independent, strong woman with a vibrant personality who cherishes life’s celebrations. Along with her 5‑year‑old daughter, she seeks a dream home that reflects her essence while accommodating her needs in a highly functional manner. Passionate about cooking, entertaining, and celebrating life, she wanted a space that radiates energy, warmth, and practicality—all while remaining distinctly unique.
The concept behind this 237m² Apartment for Mother and Daughter is to create a welcoming and comfortable space that fosters long readings and quiet introspection. Designed with the goal of promoting well-being and tranquility, this home offers practical storage solutions alongside a dedicated library area—ideal for hosting book clubs and intimate gatherings.
Integration was the keyword and main concept for the development of this project, located in Curitiba, Paraná. Responding to the request of the owners, a couple who enjoy entertaining, architect Jorge Elmor, from Estúdio Elmor, transformed a segmented duplex, with a traditional layout, into a spacious and integrated apartment.
