Iporanga House
Guarujá, Brazil
Located in Iporanga, a region renowned for its lush landscapes and integration with native vegetation, this residence emerges as a reinvention of a pre-existing structure.
The house, originally defined by an “L”-shaped roof that was well-positioned on the site, retained only this roof and its structure as the
foundation for the new intervention. Everything else was completely rebuilt, resulting in a light, white home where the boundaries between
indoors and outdoors dissolve.
The living room is the heart of the design, functioning as an extension of the veranda and connecting all areas to the main view of the garden. The spaces are distributed in an efficient and fluid layout: four suites, an integrated kitchen, dining, and living room, a cozy family room, and a strategically placed service area. To foster moments of togetherness, the project also includes a barbecue area facing the garden. The design engages with nature in a poetic and functional way. Large white shutters wrap around the house, filtering natural light, ensuring cross-ventilation, and providing visual privacy. In contrast, two vertical blocks of charred wood stand out in the composition. These elements house technical volumes such as the water tank and utility areas, while introducing a touch of rusticity to the overall design.
The interiors, also designed by the office, are defined by a clean and serene aesthetic, emphasizing a connection to the natural surroundings. The material palette balances the exposed brick in the family room with the soft, light tones that prevail throughout the
other spaces. Casa Iporanga is more than just a residence; it is an experience of living in harmony with the landscape, where architecture and nature meet in a quiet and immersive way.
