Two parallel white planes that break the boundary between the interior and exterior space were the starting point for the reorganization of this home.  Image Courtesy © Coletivo Arquitetos

The ceiling design was created to solve an interference of the existing structure and to increase the height of the ceiling. The ceiling, the wine cellar and the floating wooden bench that frames the layout of the living room, all take advantage of the interferences of the structure. As a counterpoint to the main room, the dining room and the home theatre, essentially white and with a lower ceiling height, appear as subtractions when opening the sliding doors.

The kitchen was enlarged to meet the demand of the new resident, as well as the definition of the spaces for silverware and linen room. The core was covered by white slats of wood in different widths, and extends into an intimate area where a space for the family has been created. In the reconfiguration of the intimate spaces, the couple’s master bedroom was prioritized, where a bathroom was integrated into the dressing spaces. A central Calacata marble countertop and hanging mirrors separate the rooms which are covered with oak wood. Milky glass was used in the showers to allow for natural light to enter the space. The lighting was designed to emphasize the project as well as to value the arts displayed throughout the apartment.
