Apartamento Baronesa

The Baronesa Apartment originally boasted a well-structured layout, featuring a spacious living room with a balcony, a master bedroom, and two additional bedrooms. The clients expressed their desire for a fully renovated kitchen, one that is luminous and expansive, capable of seamlessly integrating with the living room or being closed off as needed for daily activities. To fulfill this vision, we devised a sliding door that offers flexibility: it can be fully opened, recessed into the wall, or closed altogether. Maura Mello One of the primary challenges of this projvect centered around the living room's layout. Given the room's square shape, we opted for a double sofa that effectively divides the space into a TV area and a lounge, ens... Meer

Giudice House

Commissioned by a couple with teenage children, the design of this residence, located in a heavily wooded neighborhood in São Paulo city, arises from a particular story: to create the new from the preexistence.

Oblique Pavillion

The Oblique Pavilion is an ephemeral space, configured in a 12x9 area, located between three access streets at an event fair. The proposal arises from this challenge: to design a pavilion without pre-established facades, that could dialog with all its views, as well as allow fluidity on all sides. Studio Gui Uemura Studio Gui Uemura Studio Gui Uemura Because of this, the design is defined by the sum of angles and organic lines, which provides fluidity to a space that would be constantly busy on event days and also favors the sectoring of the program. Studio Gui Uemura Studio Gui Uemura Studio Gui Uemura In a single, closed volume at the back of the pavilion, we concentrate the entire administrative and servic... Meer

Apartamento Pedroso Alvarenga

As the years go by, customs and living arrangements change. Previously, the floor plans of residential apartments were highly compartmentalized, with various separate rooms divided by walls, a room for staff, numerous bathrooms, among other distinctive features. However, increasingly, the newer generations seek more open and connected spaces with fewer obstacles and a lively atmosphere. This is how we conceptualized this renovation project together with the young couple who owns this apartment in the Itaim neighborhood. Pedro Napolitano Prata With 110m² of space, we proposed the demolition of all the walls in the social or common areas, integrating them into a single, fluid, and cozy space. Where there used to be a living room, d... Meer

Music and Technology

Wat kan de perfecte betekenis zijn van deel uitmaken van de context van waar je bent? In dit geval, een andere stad, in een ander land met een nog meer verschillende cultuur. Toen we dit project bedachten, was het ons doel om mensen zich comfortabel en verbonden te laten voelen op de plek waar ze zijn. Renato Navarro Het kantoor is het nieuwe thuis van een Europees muziekstreamingbedrijf aan de andere kant van de oceaan, in São Paulo, Brazilië. We moesten een verband leggen tussen het kantoor en de stad, maar dat mocht niet voor de hand liggen. Het bevindt zich op een van de belangrijkste adressen van São Paulo, direct achter de beroemde Paulista Ave, in een gloednieuw modern gebouw met een prachtig uitzicht over de... Meer

Trifolium Flowershop

On the ground floor of a 3-story building dating back to 1950, you will find Trifolium Flower Shop, a contemporary-style flower shop that opens directly onto the street, extending itself invitingly and closely to the sidewalk. Pedro Napolitano Prata Caption Pedro Napolitano Prata The shop covers just 35 square meters, but due to the removal of the existing ceiling, raising the ceiling height to 4 meters, the spatial sensation is comfortable. The lighting, with electrical conduits and tubular LED lights specially designed for the project, establishes the height of a conventional ceiling, giving proportion to the space. It was decided to highlight the sole exposed pillar in the shop, revealing its original materiality. Pedr... Meer

Apartamento Louvre

Gelegen in het iconische Louvre-gebouw, ontworpen door de São Paulo-architect João Artacho Jurado in de jaren 1950, stelden we voor om het bestaande metselwerk in het appartement bijna volledig af te breken, de ruimte te reorganiseren, openheid te brengen en het programma aan te passen aan de hedendaagse dynamiek. We wilden een eerbetoon brengen aan dit symbolische gebouw door de kleuren ervan te gebruiken in de compositie van het project. Pedro Napolitano Prata Pedro Napolitano Prata Pedro Napolitano Prata We creëerden een blauw metalen organiserend volume dat niet alleen de ruimtes verdeelt en de belangrijkste natte ruimtes van het appartement concentreert, maar ook dient als een sculpturaal element dat...

Bar Esquina do Souza

Located on a charming corner of the city, Bar Esquina do Souza was already an iconic place for locals and visitors. However, the challenge was to elevate this space to new levels, while maintaining its unique identity and modernizing its infrastructure to meet contemporary needs.  Pedro Napolitano Prata Pedro Napolitano Prata Pedro Napolitano Prata Pedro Napolitano Prata The project by MARCOZERO Estudio was conceived as a dialogue between the past and the present. By preserving original architectural elements, such as the exposed brick facade and iron details, the architects respected the history of the place.

25 best architecture firms in Brazil

In een dynamische fusie van cultuur, diversiteit, levendigheid en innovatie verweeft de Braziliaanse architectuur het uitgestrekte natuurlijke landschap met erfgoed, invloeden van migranten en modernisme. Van de inheemse woningen in de weelderige regenwouden van het Amazonegebied tot de bruisende openbare straten van Rio de Janeiro en de strakke gebouwen van São Paulo, de architectuur van het land wordt gekenmerkt door haar veelzijdige karakter. In de kern is het Braziliaanse architectuurlandschap een verzameling van inheemse bouwwerken en koloniale architectuur, beïnvloed door Portugese, Afrikaanse en immigrantenstijlen. De overblijfselen van deze periode zijn nog steeds zichtbaar in de charmante koloniale steden Ouro Preto en... Meer

Colégio Bento Benedini

Colégio Bento Benedini is located in the city of Ribeirão Preto on the corner of two important avenues in the city. When the clients came to us, in the early 1990s, they were looking to expand the school and would like to remain in the same location. For this reason, the construction deadline was a major challenge, as classes could not be delayed or stopped completely. Bezzon Arquitetura Bezzon Arquitetura Bezzon Arquitetura Therefore, our office chose to use dry construction technology to gain agility and carry out the work during the end-of-year school holidays, that is, we use metal structures, pre-cast concrete slabs, drywall sealing and exposed installations, which was a great technical advance for the cit...

KF House

The residents of Casa KF went back to Brazil with two young children and wanted to build a house that would keep up with the family's growth. A safe space, with all the possibilities that living in a condominium allows. Joana França Joana França Joana França One of the biggest challenges of this project was ensuring the construction of a relatively large house on a compact plot of land. The solution was to create a permeable space with a poetic subversion of the entrance logic. The main door gives access to the social area and is right in the middle of the land. The concrete pergola leads to the interior of Casa KF. Joana França Joana França The fluidity guaranteed by the cohesio... Meer

The house located on a top of a mountain, near the border between the state of São Paulo and Minas Gerais, with a wide view of the region. The construction was conceived as two volumes of equal dimensions that support a unique light roof, and which are crossed - and joined - by a balcony that extends towards the slope and the astonishing view, forming a viewpoint that extends to the horizon. One of the volumes houses a living room and kitchen, in addition to a laundry/technical area, which is accessed by a deck located at the back of the building. Alberto Ricci... Meer
