MMB Residence

Pitta Arquitetura designs a 250m² residence that combines sophistication and natural elements, providing a unique connection with the coastal landscape

Pitta Arquitetura designed the MMB Residence, a house located in Itamambuca, Ubatuba, with a built area of 250m². The project aims to create a spacious and fresh environment, providing comfort even on the hottest days in the region. "Our goal was to create a house that would blend in with the warm climate of the coastal region, using natural materials such as wood and glass, which not only offer sophistication, but also a feeling of welcome and connection with the natural surroundings", explain architects Thiago Brunini Pitta and Rodrigo Alves Pereira.

The social area of the residence was designed to allow maximum transparency between the front and back of the lot, favoring the passage of natural light and ventilation. The large openings create a direct connection between the internal and external spaces, with emphasis on the roof with beveled eaves, which lends lightness and elegance to the construction. "The roof with beveled eaves was a strategic choice to soften the lines of the construction and provide a harmonious dialogue with the natural environment. In addition, the cross ventilation and generous openings ensure that the house remains cool and bright", state the architects.

With 5 suites, 3 on the ground floor and 2 on the upper floor, the house also has a kitchen that connects directly to the living room, balcony and gourmet area, creating an ideal environment for socializing and leisure. "The kitchen was designed as the heart of the house, connecting the residents with the garden and the outdoor area. We wanted it to be an inviting and functional space, perfect for moments of celebration", explains Rodrigo Alves Pereira.

The wood used in the frames, carpentry and coverings creates a feeling of coziness, while the landscaping with native plants adapted to the coastal climate brings freshness and color, further integrating the house with nature. "The idea was to create a house that would be an extension of the garden, with materials that harmonize with the surrounding landscape and ensure a constant experience with nature," concludes Thiago Brunini Pitta.
