Right from the initial discussions regarding the Casa LC3 project, the owners brought forth a series of brazilian modern architecture references. These references encompassed not only aesthetic considerations and an affinity for materials but also the concepts of pure forms and prioritization of functionality.
This focus, combined with a contemporary housing program, set a fertile ground for experimentation in the project's development, aligning with our architectural approach here at Largo Arquitetura.
Consequently, the project's essence arose from the suspension of the private spaces, housing four suites divided into two blocks to allow for cross ventilation and optimal arrangement of the generated views. Beneath these private spaces lie the fixed areas of the social spaces: living rooms, and the indoor/outdoor dining areas typical of the Brazilian contemporary houses. These areas are enclosed by floor to ceiling sliding glass doors, promoting the integration of all social spaces within the project. This integration better accommodates family events, while simultaneously demarcating interior spaces and allowing abundant natural light.
The western constructed section features a corridor of service spaces, including an office and kitchen and pantry, all built in steel structure, connecting both of the main building volumes and shielding the house from the western sun in the afternoon.
The material selection accentuates the project's narrative. The blocks to the north and south are crafted from board formed concrete. The use of steel beams was a necessity to sustain the large spans generated in the project, which also contributed to the abundance of glass elements throughout the residence by enclosing these spans with the sliding glass.
The central courtyard, resulting from the division of the blocks, stands as a pivotal space within the project. It enhances ventilation and light in it’s adjacent areas, but also governs the primary internal views. This courtyard is also home to a small and sculptural chapel. An important religious space for the family, the chapel is executed in cast in site concrete. Its shape and the geometric design of the stained glass evoke pure forms that reflect the dialectics of liturgical spaces.
The social spaces receive monolithic terrazzo flooring, which combined with meticulous level control and floor gradients permits better spatial integration. Natural stone and wood decking surround the pool and the outdoor areas. A perforated steel brise-soleil adorns the residence's façade, complementing the rest of the metallic structures.
The most significant challenge in this project lay in the construction site's development, where the substantial volumes of concrete were poured in place in close relation with the steel beams structures. This coexistence demanded precision between the distinct construction methodologies, catering to both the functional and aesthetic aspects of the project.
