A sustainable space, with flexible and modern assembly techniques and very cozy: this was the trademark that
Rafa Zampini left in his debut at
CASACOR São Paulo 2023.
A specialist in
modular constructions , Zampini explored an
eco-friendly space in the project in which
nature is the protagonist .
“The idea was to create a beach bungalow that could be transported or located in any coastal city in Brazil, like the houses already designed by our office, coexisting with the place where it is located,” he explains.
The project - named
Casa Almar - explores multiple functions and the concept of nomadism, as it allows for
more agile construction that can be transported from one place to another without great difficulty.
“We respected the historical and architectural importance of Conjunto Nacional, adapting our project to preserve the structure of the property, such as raising the modular system to protect the original slab, for example", comments the architect.
The professional was inspired by the concept of wabi sabi decoration to conceptualize the architectural project, betting on
intentional imperfection and the effect of time to reflect on natural beauty and the aging process.
In this sense, he used sustainable materials with rustic and transitory characteristics, such as
discarded wood shavings in the external structure , cumaru decking, banana leaves, unrectified shard flooring, as well as natural textures, earthy tones and elements of intentional minimalism that stimulate the senses.
