Apartamento SQS 308

The apartment is located at SQS 308, Brasília's model superblock. Lucio Costa positioned the buildings so that all residents had privacy. The glazed rooms and rooms face east.

The west light from the service area is filtered by the cobogós. The landscape of the court consists of dematerialized white blocks that seem to float over Burle Marx's gardens. The objective of this project was to reinterpret the modernist heritage and connect it to the new experience.

We had the freedom to rebuild the apartment, which had been disfigured by the renovations of previous years. The intention to rescue the visual silence of the space would leave the landscape and art in evidence. We redid the plaster, loosened the walls from the floor and repositioned the new cumaru blocks with the same binding as the original floor.

The furniture and works of art rescue the Brazilianness of some masters: Burle Marx, Dionísio Del santos, Gilvan Nunes, Zanine Caldas, Lina Bo Bardi, Sergio Rodrigues, zalszupin among others.
