Lofts have become very popular housing options in urban centers. Despite their small size, they can provide a cozy and affectionate decor . An example of this is Estúdio Ninho , designed by architect Jacira Pinheiro for CASACOR Rio de Janeiro 2024, a 48 m² space that houses all the rooms a home needs: bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and living room.

Each space has functional measures to ensure better circulation and comfort. The architect used carpentry as a structural element to divide the spaces, achieving the perfect balance between providing privacy and connection, basic requirements for a loft.

Other resources helped the architect overcome the lack of space and increase the feeling of spaciousness, such as the minimum ceiling height to ensure a 3-meter-high ceiling.

The kitchen counter is versatile and doubles as a dining table . “ To soften the more angular ‘tip’ of the triangular plan, we rounded the wall where the fireplace is, making it more prominent ,” says the architect.

Inspired by her own experiences, Jacira brought her emotional memories to the project, reflected in contemporary decor, punctuated by more classic-style furniture.
The chosen coverings range from the dominant wooden flooring and natural stone countertops to the walls that alternate delicate dry-jointed bricks, glazed ceramics with a vintage look, wainscoting panels and natural freijó.
