Article source: Pablo Padin Arquiteto The Reserva House is a unifamiliar house, located in a gated community near São Paulo megalopolis, in the industrial city of Jundiaí. The idea of the Project consists in promoting the Family gathering. Its lower floor is a social open space that looks outside to the tropical garden that surrounds the building. The large span slab creates big spaces without partitions. It was used a reinforced concrete grid structure system, not very common in unifamiliar houses, that gives an industrial signature to the construction.
Medium cost materials have been used in innovative ways to provide confort and visual quality to the users, as intended in a luxury 550 square meter house. The living room and its surroundings is totally flexible, pemiting various layouts for the possible requirements of the growing Family. The upper floor consists in the private Family area: bedroom, bathrooms and home-theater. These spaces are made in structural mansory and covered with pre-frabricated concrete slab. The bathrooms open to internal small patios that provide natural lighting and ventilation. The upper floor façade is covered with void elements, called “cobogós” that protects from solar heating of the spaces and provide natural ventilation and privacy of use. The roof floor is used to the technical areas as water reservoir, water heating solar pannels, pool water heating tubes and other utilities in order to make the house life as sustainable as possible. This utilities are held in a esculptorical concrete and stainless steel structure. The roof is covered with a polymerical membrane and is accessible to people, without the necessity of special security items. There is also a deck in this floor with the magnificent view to the Japi Sierra mountains. Contact Pablo Padin Arquiteto
