BARONEZA XI

I 2018

The Baroneza XI residence, located in the interior of São Paulo and about 70km from the capital, is a clear and compact design, positioned on the front portion of the plot.  

The distribution of the project's program is efficiently resolved based on the simplicity of the implantation: the north-facing volume is intended for the intimate wing while the other, on the east elevation and facing the back of the plot, organizes the service area. 

The meeting space and entrance door is central to the floor plan and features a fourteen-meter span marked by extensive metalwork. Functioning as a screen to the street, it is detached from the floor, walls and slab. A single opening frames the landscape in the background, revealing a glimpse of what is expected inside the project.

Still on the front elevation, it is important to mention that the volume and density of the parallelepiped is highlighted by the elimination of windows on the front façade and the concentration of lighting in zenithal openings, positioned in the intimate circulation corridor and in front of each access. This aesthetic, as well as preserving the intimacy of the resident and protecting against the sun, reveals a continuous surface and reinforces the predominant materiality of wooden stone with white mortar overlay.  

In contrast to these aspects, the other volumes are cut out. The south face, set back and marked by the difference in material, creates a small eaves and is filled with varied rhythms due to the wooden panels, which open onto the garden and the forest. The vegetation, as well as making up the external landscape, seeps into the bedrooms. It floods the interior with color and natural light.
