Brooklin Apartment designed by Küster Brizola Arquitetos highlights checkered floor

The apartment located in Brooklin, São Paulo, was conceived by the firm Küster Brizola Arquitetos. This project has a total area of 200m² and was developed specifically for a couple with two children.

The description provided by the design team emphasizes that the traditional checkered floor was elevated to a central role in the property's conception. The residence was created with the primary goal of being a space focused on family togetherness, hosting friends and relatives, and forming lasting emotional bonds.

To achieve this goal, the classic floor pattern was reinterpreted, serving as an organizing element for both the social area and defining the overall identity of the apartment.

House project in Vinhedo developed by Apiacás Arquitetos

The design team described that a large and level plot of land, intended for the construction of a residence with a maximum area of 250 m², inspired the placement of the house in a way that maximizes the connection between the covered internal areas and the external spaces.

The final layout follows a logic already used in other residential projects by the office, where the circulation paths between the environments are designed as covered walkways, but open on the sides, dispensing with frames or walls. This feature aims to extend the living experience between the interior and the exterior of the building.
