Description

[en]
A brand new apartment, just finished by contractor, that suffered some small and simple design interventions to express the personality of the client. Aiming a fast and clean process, there was no structural interventions in this project.

Therefore, the design aimed to create a simple and serene atmosphere, translated in practical and functional spaces to host the daily life.

The proposed design was based in three strategies. The first one was the use of colour. By painting only three walls in very natural tone of green, the whole apartment assumed a friendly and calm personality that fits perfectly with the client. The colour here was used to contrast with the existing light gray walls, creating a volume in the living area and a background to the master bedroom. The second was a very clean light design, mainly using indirect lighting hidden in the lining, with just a few spotlights where needed. Finally, the last one, was the simple design of cabinets and furniture based on straight lines and a transforming composition of white melamine and Tauari timber.

O apartamento recém entregue pela construtora não sofreu qualquer alteração de estrutura ou revestimento já instalado. A pedido da cliente, partimos do panorama existente para uma obra limpa e rápida, mas que ainda assim fosse capaz de refletir sua personalidade.

Sendo assim, buscamos construir uma atmosfera simples e serena que se traduzisse em ambientes práticos e funcionais através de intervenções pontuais no espaço.

A primeira delas foi a pintura de apenas três paredes em um tom de verde espinafre em todo o apartamento, uma cor natural que transmite a mesma tranquilidade que marca a personalidade da cliente. O verde então, é responsável por dar personalidade a base de paredes existentes na cor cinza claro, configurando um volume na sala e um agradável pano de fundo na suíte.

Paralelamente, foi trabalhado também um projeto luminotécnico pautado sobretudo na iluminação indireta do espaço através de negativos de luz no forro, com apenas alguns spots direcionáveis em pontos focais dos espaços .

Por fim, desenhamos toda a marcenaria do apartamento, seguindo a mesma simplicidade da arquitetura: linhas retas, puxadores esculpidos e uma mutável composição entre o revestimento branco e a lâmina natural de madeira de Tauari, em perfeita harmonia com o mobiliário escolhido e as peças mantidas pela moradora.

Questions and Answers

What was the brief?

The client asked for a simple, clean and fast intervention since the apartment was brand new. The building works were just finishing and she wanted to move in short time and, of course, within the budget.
