The Santonofre bar is located in the heart of the city of São José dos Campos / SP – Brazil, in a flat area.
The bar was designed with a good acoustic treatment. The lounge has a good space to do two types of business, bar time and great parties.
Constructed in steel frame and covered with glazing and cement slabs. Inside the bar and on the facade design have many urban references with the graffiti art of two local artists, Julio Torquetti and Adam Vieira, who have done a wonderful job.
The main request of the couple was to make a house with roof and great offer of external area. We proposed a large sloping roof in metal structure and L-shaped installation, where the yard turned into a large lawn fully integrated with the internal space. The large frames allow the total opening of the spaces on the ground floor by diluting the boundaries between the interior and exterior. Still on the ground floor there is a service and kitchen core that does not have access to the central lawn.
The Dutch architectural firm expands its growing business by opening its second outpost in São Paulo (Brazil). The practice, founded by architects Kees Kaan, Vincent Panhuysen and Dikkie Scipio in 2014 quintessentially reveals a natural connection with Brazilian modernist architecture and aesthetics, highlighted through the use of raw concrete, clean lines and functional forms.
The project for the headquarters offices of Foxware Ltda has been realized in 2014, in Sao José dos Campos, one of the main cities of the state of Sao Paulo in Brazil.
The offices extend around 240 square meters in one of the most modern and exclusive buildings in the \”Jardim Alvorada\” district, very near the future World Trade Center.
