Mirá das Águas, one of the four developments in the Aramirá complex, was built in a spot with a privileged view of the sunset.
The layout of the towers and the twist at the bottom, inspired by the movement of Amazonian trees, allowed for the creation of a water square in the center of the development. The water mirror has different uses: jets for children to play with and two small beaches, as well as a red sculpture that references the trees of the igapós. More than just a landscaping element, the presence of water enhances the connection with nature and values the direct relationship with the Amazonian landscape.
The Mirá das Águas towers were positioned so that the evening light would pass through the complex and illuminate the promenade, creating a sensory experience in the public space.
Notably, the base of the towers features a twisted design—inspired by the movement of igapó trees—which expands the leisure area in the water square and opens up the view of the sunset. An architectural reinterpretation of elements of the Amazon rainforest.
We developed the facades in different shades of brown, evoking the vivid texture of tree bark.
Fixed and movable brises make up the exterior of the building, creating depth. The movable brises, opaque on the outside and transparent on the inside, ensure privacy without compromising visibility and still allow cross ventilation — a balance between protection, comfort, and connection with the outside.
