AP 206N
Brasília, Brazil
The residential buildings of the superquadra SQN 206, located in Brasília, in the Plano Piloto, were designed by architects Marcílio Mendes Ferreira and Takudoo Takada in 1978. They stand out for their impressive architectural quality, which makes them one of the most prestigious superquadras in the Plano Piloto. There are 11 identical buildings, each with 36 apartments, all of which share the same spatial configuration, providing harmony and unity to the residential complex.
We were thus faced with the challenge of refurbishing the interior of one of these apartments. Our starting point was to revitalize without compromising the remarkable quality of the original design, particularly the excellent functional distribution of the spaces, which in turn creates generous, spacious, airy, and welcoming environments.
To further enhance these characteristics, it was indispensable to make surgical interventions in the outdated building infrastructures.
We sought a solution that would ensure the perfect functioning of all installations while integrating new technologies to promote well-being and meet residents' expectations, without compromising the originality of a 1970s apartment.
We adopted austerity as a principle to provide unity through the sobriety of the tones and materials used. With a few strategic design interventions, we maintained and enhanced the original spatial and functional quality, allowing residents to fully enjoy a completely renovated apartment that remains deeply connected to its past.
SUSPENDED DESK AND BEDSIDE TABLE
The design actions established for the refurbishment of the apartment are based on the entirety of the space. In this context, we operated from the scale of civil work interventions to the design of the furniture.
Designed for the bedrooms, these pieces were primarily the result of combining steel with wood, resulting in visually light products that reduce their uses and functions to the essential. Floating against the apartment walls, they delicately maintain the integral unity of the tones, textures, and solutions employed throughout the project.
