Nest Loft - Nildo José(Marco Antônio/)
01/16 - Melina Romano – Estúdio Trama. In 43 m², the professional has a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room. The sofa designed by the professional can also be used as a bed, next to the bookcase, which functions as a divider. (MCA Estúdio)
02/16 - Gabriela Lotufo and Larissa Oliveira - Leroy Merlin Sustainable Home. Sustainable materials are used in every detail, such as the tiles made from PET bottles, the baseboards made from recycled Styrofoam and the flooring made from reclaimed wood. The loose partitions made from cross-laminated wood require minimal use of natural resources during assembly and disassembly. (Renato Navarro)
03/16 - Bergamo Jewel - Writer's House. With 70 m², it is inspired by projects such as Philip Johnson's Glass House. It is no coincidence that most of the enclosures are made of glass and the structure is made of Steel Frame. The construction system with galvanized steel profiles and cement boards allows for a quick and clean construction, without bricks or cement. The furniture features designer pieces by Reinaldo Lourenço, Ronald Sasson, Paulo Sartori and Antonio Bonet. (Felipe Araújo)
04/16 - Suite Arquitetos - Renault Tree House. The huge flamboyant tree with Adam's ribs at the base steals the show. With no physical barriers between the living room and the garden, the integration with the greenery is accentuated. To prolong contact with nature, earthy tones were chosen for the coverings and furniture. To finish, there is a wooden screen, a marble wall and a gourmet stone island. Daniela Frugiuele designed the project with Filipe Troncon and Carolina Mauro. (Evelyn Muller)
05/16 - Flávia Gerab and Silvana Mattar - Boutique Residence 218. The millennial generation's way of living is represented in an agile layout that highlights good design and integration. The kitchen is one of the spaces, where the shelves have been invaded by plants and the natural appeal is even more evident in the marble wall. (Ricardo Basseti)
06/16 - Triplex Arquitetura - Casa Raízes. The country house houses a bathroom, bedroom, living room and a balcony with a gourmet kitchen, a perfect place to recharge your batteries. The professionals prioritized sustainable materials that allowed a connection with nature. The hand-woven natural fiber lining is the highlight of the project, alongside the bookshelf filled with plants that separates the living room and bedroom. (Felipe Araújo)

08/16 - Leo Shehtman – Casa Arcos. The colors used in the rooms of the house – highlighting the deep green, the analogous blue, the earthy tones and their variations – delimit the integrated environments and surround the central volume, maintaining the privacy of the bathroom. (Denilson Machado)
09/16 - Michel Safatle - Loft Eu + Tu + Elas. Lighting, earthy and blue tones and various objects make up a décor that encourages intimacy and coexistence. In addition, the premise of the 125 m² loft is integration. The spaces are connected, keeping only the bathroom and closet separate, in a single annex isolated by walls. (Salvador Cordaro)
10/16 - Nildo José - Loft Ninho. In this 80 m² refuge, areas with distinct functions are integrated. The architectural design follows and enhances the aesthetics of the Jockey, with a structure that does not interfere with the original elements. The design is highlighted by LED strip lighting. Pieces signed by Jean Prouvé and Oscar Niemeyer are among the few good items that make up the furniture. (Marco Antônio)
11/16 - Marcelo Salum - Loft “Something is happening in my heart”. In this 60 m² loft, the São Paulo landscape is suggested on the walls, which alternate between gray and green. Lush plants contrast with the furniture with simple lines. The fabrics are embroidered with excerpts from songs by Chico Buarque and Caetano Veloso. (Evelyn Muller)
12/16 - Patrícia Hagobian - Loft LG #amour. The rounded shapes of the heart inspired the design of the furniture and rug in this 98 m² space. The lines help create the cozy atmosphere, with the soft tones of pink and beige, as well as the woody panels. Also noteworthy are the lighting resources and the arrangement of the pendants. (Mariana Orsi)
13/16 - Très Arquitetura - Casa Menir. Fernanda Morais, Fernanda Tegacini and Nathalia Mouco sought out the first known expressions of living in ancient times. So much so that the name of the project refers to the first known symbol of architecture. The kitchen comes with a steel and wood shelf that displays utensils and books. In front of it, the upholstered furniture has a rope backrest for relaxation. (Evelyn Muller)
14/16 - Flavia Ranieri - Longevity Studio. The professional runs the Grou office, which specializes in architecture for the elderly.

For a relaxing atmosphere, soft colors such as mint and rosé, plants and family mementos. (Divulgação)
15/16 - Érica Salguero - Executive Studio. Marble panel, leather sofa and wooden furniture reflect the modern and luxurious style of the businessman, while strengthening the connection with nature. The panel with sideboard delimits the living room and the bedroom. The color palette includes shades of white, gray and moss green, as in the Grand Repos velvet armchair by Antonio Citterio. (Renato Navarro)
16/16 - Yamagata Arquitetura - Nuage Annex. Aldi Flosi, Bruno Rangel and Paloma Yamagata found the elements in Scandinavian design to compose the atmosphere of this 68 m² loft.
