Located in Itaim Bibi, a neighbourhood in São Paulo, Pedroso Apartment is a three-bedroom apartment designed for a young couple, who aimed for a timeless project and neutral colours scheme, with a subtle touch of classic style.
Like a metallic container placed above exposed concrete walls, this house establishes two types of relationships with the surroundings. The upper floor can be closed 100% to block sunlight, guarantee the privacy and acoustically isolate intimate spaces.
The LR house was built on a sloping plot, surrounded by neighboring lots on both sides. The project sought to privilege the powerful visual range of the landscape that unfolds from the east face, opposite to the main access road.
Guilherme Torres accompanied the young couple from the purchase of the lot – a 463m2 house, built in the 80’s at the heart of a traditional neighbourhood of São Paulo – to the final steps in the remodelling of the house.
The building, possibly from the late 1950s, although it was located in a central region of the city, it was built in a leafy neighborhood, presented a mix of styles, arising from successive extensions and renovations, but had the ideal area.
The MJE House is located on a steep slope, dialoguing with the spectacular view of the horizon, lake, and surrounding mountain landscape. Seeking to occupy the land horizontally, we started from the creation of an architecture with only one floor, which subtly interacted with the existing landscape.
Planned for a couple of young doctors, Tangerine House is a 220 m2 residence lodged in an elongated and narrow plot, surrounded by neighbors, in the Alto da Lapa neighborhood in São Paulo.
The architectural design conceived for the CL House, that would house a young couple, seeks to highlight the magnificent views of the lake and forest reserve present in the implantation site.
