Maggiore is organized through an evident structural system and a direct compositional approach. The side walls form continuous and defined planes, while the front and rear façades open through large spans, establishing a clear reading between solids and voids.
Exposed concrete defines the building’s material foundation. Over it, red frames and brise-soleils introduce rhythm and depth, making color a constitutive element of the façade. The combination of mass, shadow, and metal elements creates a strong presence, engaging in a free dialogue with the tradition of Brazilian modernism.
At ground level, the absence of walls allows the gardens to extend toward the sidewalk, bringing the building closer to the street. The open entrance is marked by a hydraulic tile panel with an organic pattern designed by Arquitetura Nacional, accompanying the entry sequence and establishing a more sensitive transition between public space and interior. The double-height lobby expands this sequence, organizing the arrival as a clear and continuous spatial experience.
The project is defined by the articulation between structure, color, and materiality, constructing its identity through a restrained palette of elements handled with precision.
