Located within the block defined by Avenida Bem-te-vi and Arapapi and Arapanés streets, Bem Moema is a mixed-use development that articulates precise architectural solutions for complex urban and programmatic contexts. The project emerged from the need to reconcile an extensive program — combining residential units, office suites and ground-floor retail — within a consolidated urban fabric. The adopted strategy divided the complex into three complementary sectors, organizing uses while enhancing its relationship with the surrounding city. Pedro Vannucchi Pedro Vannucchi The residential tower, positioned at the corner of Bem-te-vi and Arapapi, features five apartments per floor, with retail at ground level faci... More

Through the renovation of a 97 m² apartment in a 1970s building in the Paraíso neighborhood of São Paulo, AS913 emerged from a radical decision: to tear down all the walls and completely rethink the logic of the original floor plan. With only the structural columns preserved, Passos Arquitetura redesigned the apartment’s program, incorporating two suites, a powder room, a walk-in closet, and integrated social areas — a complete transformation that contrasts with the fragmented configuration of the original design. André Mortatti Where the space was once divided into small bedrooms, a single bathroom, an isolated kitchen, and a service quarter, the new project embraces openness and continuity. The... More

"Located in the Residencial Ipês neighborhood in Goiânia, Casa Acapu was born from the meeting of contemporary volumetry and the sloping terrain, where architecture and nature blend in harmony. Built on a slope of over four meters, the house rises gently above the street, revealing in its volumes the transition between social and intimate spaces. Designed for a couple starting their life together with the dream of building a family, Casa Acapu translates the desire for a welcoming and free home, where each environment celebrates conviviality and the landscape. Respecting the terrain's slope, the volumetry was constituted by three blocks: the lower block for the garage, the intermediate block for the social area, and the upper bl... More

Irregular lots are often seen as challenges. But they can also inspire inventive solutions, especially in residential projects. Casa Crivellente, located in a cul-de-sac on a semicircular lot in the city of Campo Grande, took solar orientation as its starting point. Erich Sacco Erich Sacco Designed by architect Gil de Camillo, the residence emerges from an inversion of the conventional implantation logic: instead of reserving the back of the lot for leisure, the social and gathering areas were brought to the front, taking advantage of the morning sun while shielding the veranda from Campo Grande’s intense afternoon heat. Private and service areas were positioned at the rear. As a result, the veranda, barbecue area, deck, an... More

Conditioned by an environmentally protected area on the backyard, the RG house diverges into two distinct priority facts, one environmental and another human: the uneven topography, characteristic of the city, and the contemplative value that the preserved vegetation offers to the residents on the most private limit of the lot.   The project proposes an alternative that reconciles these two aspects. From the street, the house extends from the upper level to the backyard, in a way that floats on the topography while suits it, creating a shaded area on the ground and linking the main access to the street. In this conformation, the project assumes a elevated ground floor for intimate purposes - whose elevation allows privacy and the bes... More
