Other Projects by Anastassiadis Arquitetos
RI Apartment
São Paulo, Brazil
A common occurrence in architecture is the reconfiguration of the way we live. An apartment that once housed a large family enters a new phase when the children leave, making it necessary to rethink its spaces. Such is the case of this 320 m² apartment in Jardins, São Paulo, which has become the home of a childless couple, now in a more mature stage of life. It was at this moment of rediscovery of the place and of themselves that Anastassiadis Arquitetos was invited to lead a renovation.
The starting point was the desire to refresh the architecture and interiors. Although the old structure carried memories, it was compartmentalized, resulting in a feeling of smaller space. The renovation softened the internal boundaries while maintaining privacy in an interesting way: pillars took the form of curved columns arranged diagonally, covered with wood, which gradually reveal the areas near the living room. Now spacious, it connects to the dining room, library, and home theater. This layout reinforces the proximity between people, even in different environments and uses of the apartment.
The unevenness of the living room is one of the elements with a strong personality
preserved by Anastassiadis. The neutral tones reinforce the silent narrative, where textures and materials tell part of the story. Stone and brown wood add drama, but without excess. “Another original idea from the apartment that we kept was a stone floor marking at the entrance: in this radial center, we proposed a wood marquetry design, a proportion that is replicated in the vaulted ceiling,” explains Felipe Anastassiadis, an architect who is part of the project's creative team. The atmosphere is classic, but seen through a contemporary lens.
The furniture has been carefully curated, with items from names such as Gio Ponti, Cassina, Vladimir Kagan, Fendi Casa, Gallotti, and Radici. The choices balance visual density and harmony, with Italian fabrics, leathers, velvets, and a palette of blues, greens, cognac, and prints. The curation allows for a discreet freedom in the composition that dispenses with formal rigidity and focuses on textures and depth.
The unusually shaped bathroom presented a challenge that was solved by the team
softening the architecture with classic curves and metal and glass lighting fixtures by
Apparatus: the result is a unique effect in the space. In the kitchen, the solid carved stone of the Capellini table establishes a gravitational center, flanked by chairs by Poltrona Frau.
The private area is another highlight of the apartment. The master bedroom has a curved bookcase, made by Angela Guarita, with a background covered in wallpaper from Colony, in Rome, which evokes natural and everyday landscapes. The pattern is repeated on the panel behind the headboard, creating an interesting dialogue. 1950s lamps complete the room with the delicacy of those who understand time and the new chapter in the residents' history.
