"The project involves the renovation of a single-family residence in the Sumare neighborhood of Sao Paulo. The original house features a brutalist and expressive materiality, characterized by its exposed concrete structure, monolithic granilite flooring, and exposed brick walls."
"Located on a steeply sloped lot, the construction is staggered across four levels, a topographical condition that provides the residence with a panoramic view of Pico do Jaragua."
The project renovates a single-family residence in the Sumare neighborhood of São Paulo. The existing house has brutalist and expressive materiality, including an exposed concrete structure, monolithic granilite flooring, and exposed brick walls. The lot slopes steeply, so the construction is organized across four staggered levels. This topographical arrangement creates a panoramic relationship with the surrounding landscape, including views of Pico do Jaragua. The renovation maintains the original architectural character while adapting the residence to the site’s vertical conditions and sightlines.
