The residents of this triplex are a young couple, a doctor and a lawyer, who enjoy spending time at home and entertaining friends and family. "It had been just over a year since the owners had moved into the apartment. The floor "The terrace, where I did the project, was not yet fully finished and the clients wanted to
make the area more usable and functional . That's what started the project", explains architect
Pedro Luiz de Marqui , a professional from
CASACOR São Paulo .
The 45 m² area then gained a barbecue, ice machine, sofa in the outdoor area and a space for a wine cellar and beer cooler . The space separated into two parts has the internal part of the floor, with a more functional area, where the cabinet to store various household items and bench with wet area.
The dining table allows for comfortable meals during barbecue days. The outside area features a large jacuzzi and a beautiful
garden . “We had to remove the jacuzzi because it was below floor level. So we demolished the masonry along the around it and leveled the entire floor to then build the base and reinstall the jacuzzi again. That way, we took the opportunity to change the entire covering of the external area", explains Pedro.
The leisure space also has a super comfortable sofa, designed by the architect himself, and a barbecue area – and here’s a detail: there’s even an ice machine hidden inside the counter. “The sofa was entirely designed by me and every part was made in a different place: the structure, for example, was made in a studio in Trancoso, Bahia, using reclaimed wood. The fabrics, suitable for outdoor areas, were selected from two different stores and the tapestry was made by a company from São Paulo”, says the architect.
One of the project's highlights is its contemporary decor, full of boldness, through the use of open colors, textures and geometric shapes, along with noble and traditional materials, used in a relaxed way; in addition to bringing national and international design objects.
