The young couple lived in a building in Barra da Tijuca (RJ), when they decided to take advantage of the 160 m² property next door – which is slightly larger and was rented – as soon as it was vacated. Before moving in, the couple commissioned architects Ana Luisa Cairo and Gustavo Prado , from the A+G Arquitetura office, to carry out a complete renovation project, covering all the rooms, including the decor, which is completely new.

They also asked for a home office space separate from the suites where they could both work, occasionally. Finally, they asked for an integrated kitchen that could be isolated from the living room, when necessary,” says Ana Luisa.

During the renovation, one bedroom, the guest bathroom and the service room were demolished. The walls in the living room and kitchen were also removed to expand the living area and create the couple’s home office and closet, which were not in the original plan. “We transformed the old service bathroom into the current guest bathroom and also integrated the balcony with the living room,” says Gustavo.

Colors are also used in the artwork, the upholstery of the mustard sofa and the green of the natural vegetation.
