The clients' request was to come up with a project with prefabricated elements that would allow for agility and less waste throughout the construction process, with an industrial and minimalist style, without giving up a cozy home atmosphere. With these premises, we guide the project concept.
Another point that defined the design was a restriction present in the condominium legislation, where the upper floor must respect a frontal setback of 12.00 meters, while the ground floor setback is 5.00 meters. Due to this imposition of the law, we thought of a layout sectoring the garage on the left of the lot, a guest room and the entire service area on the right side, with the entrance hall and access corridor in the center, creating a void between the garage and social area, where a garden was laid out.
The social area consists of a span of 7.00 x 10.00 meters, creating a fully integrated space, with glass panels on the front and back portion of this location. The garden between the garage and the social area is closed by hollow concrete elements that control sunlight from the west side and provide privacy, allowing the entire glass panel to remain permanently open.
The upper floor houses two suites and an office, in addition to allowing access to the terrace that overlooks the sunset, on the front facade of the residence. On the back facade, the bedrooms are positioned, which have a view of a green area.
The structure of the house was made of metal beams and pillars, with a concrete panel slab. To close the walls, on the ground floor we sometimes use conventional brick, sometimes ceramic blocks, the latter being plastered and covered in the same brick.
The ground floor is entirely made of exposed brick, while on the upper floor, exposed concrete covers the entire volume, creating contrast between the two floors, which also include glass enclosures, achieving transparency with this solution and allowing the entry of abundant natural light throughout all areas. home environments.
