Textual content description supplied via the architects. The JR Home is situated in Pinheiros’s community in São Paulo and was once designed from an current assets that had maximum of its construction maintained. On the other hand, all over the demolition, we came upon that the development was once compromised and structural changes would should be made. A couple of key components guided us, the primary was once this system given to us via the shoppers, a tender couple with 3 youngsters. From there, we adapt our venture thought and shopper must the constraints of an current dwelling, however with some freedom of structural changes. Those changes gave us extra design and spatial flexibility, thus enabling the shoppers’ needs.
Every other essential level first of all determined was once the upkeep of the unique facade of the home: each the amount of white bricks and the trapezoidal concrete porch have been components that captivated us at the first consult with to the website online. The again façade has been utterly redesigned, particularly because of the brand new flooring plan the place the lounge opens utterly to the again lawn and 3 bedrooms with similar home windows are organized alongside the higher a part of the amount.
The workplace paintings was once additionally meticulously evolved in architectural components that attach the interiors to the outside, such because the picket ceiling that connects the eating room to the exterior patio of the barbeque: internally, the picket planks deliver acoustic and visible convenience and are answerable for the oblique lights of our surroundings. At the outdoor, the wooden protects from the solar making a shady and comfortable area. Following this identical line of continuity, the kitchen countertop turns into the sideboard within the eating room and a barbeque workbench at the outdoor balcony. Every other delicate and particular component of the venture is the bar within the eating room: with its “pear”-shaped design, the doorways open upwards to show a reflected area of interest. All internal designs and furnishings alternatives, if no longer designed, have been carried out via the workplace.
The most important impediment within the procedure was once for sure structural. The invention of the undersizing of the beams and slabs of the unique dwelling behind schedule the paintings and raised the preliminary prices. In order that huge and expensive structural reinforcements didn’t want to be made, the higher flooring and roof masonry partitions have been got rid of and changed with lighter-weight panel partitions to relieve the slab load. The roof was once additionally changed via a mild steel tile, additionally decreasing the burden of the roof.
The spatial configuration of the home and the distribution of this system have been guided via the unique implantation of the home at the decrease flooring. Mainly the accesses, interior distribution, and openings have been considerably modified. At the higher flooring, the shoppers’ want for three suites for his or her youngsters along with the couple’s bed room ended in the overall redistribution of the ground plan and consequent alteration of the facades. The master bedroom now occupies all the entrance of the home opening onto the trapezoidal porch.
