This proposal is nourished by the formal and textual complexity of the site, and reformulates the traditional “paulista” residence model. The fragmentation of the building’s body into three parts is made for a better integration of the recreational area and the vertical / horizontal circulation spaces. A small square in the frontal area is given back to the urban space.
The housing units are stacked according to a non-linear and non-modular variation of typologies and windows, giving the building its main look, marked by the use of simple and urban materials.
The design of the homes / apartments follows these principles:
- Individual access by external gateway.
- One apartment/home in each floor, emphasizing the 300-degree view / ventilation
- A remarkable architectural element per apartment (double volumes, patio terrace, duplex / penthouse garden).
- Different windows in each unit.
- Free plan allowing different internal partitions – modular hydraulic and electrical plugs distribution.
