Located on the 11th floor of the Copan Building, the apartment signed by SuperLimão Studio had as premise to integrate the spaces. The challenge was to create spans in the project, since the existing structure did not allow to transform the apartment into a loft.
The original pattern of the material itself is quite enthralling, acting in concert with the changes of light beams inside the spaces of this industrial-style home. This allows a further incorporation of lifestyle and residence.
The Twin Peaks Escape Pad is a getaway that lies beneath an existing 3 story home on a steep downsloping property that lies near the famed Sutro Tower in San Francisco, California. Views abound, the purpose of this new space was to serve as a family getaway underneath the existing home, used solely for entertaining and enjoyment.
The project is a 220 sqm house located in a small kibbutz (Nir – Am) in the Gaza envelope. Despite the constant threat that inflicts the area, the residents (a young couple in their 30’s with a toddler, a baby and a beautiful golden-retriever) chose to build their home in the place where they were born and raised.
There’s nothing as exciting (and simultaneously intimidating) as a blank slate. And when it came to Brooke Hammel and Jose Alvarez, a trendy and free-spirited couple in Williamsburg, their “slate” was a big one. Recently moving into a sprawling loft, they thought they might take a stab at the design themselves.
