Completely restored house designed by Vilanova Artigas Rua Comendador Elias Zarzur Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo 04736-003 Brazil

This is a house for the lovers of architecture, nature and modernism. Designed by Vilanova Artigas, one of the most famous architects in Brazil, the house is in its original design and underwent a recent restoration, presenting an excellent state of conservation. All internal and external environments invite us not only to contemplate its work, but to value collective and coexisting spaces, instead of individual areas. The house has been the subject of publications, the most recent being the Italian magazine Casa Bella (Feb 2024). “As often happens in Artigas’ works, the ramp is the main access system to the various levels […] The first one essentially leads to the double-height dining room; the second to the terrace; from where the third and final ramp gives access to the upper level with a sequence of bedrooms on one side and a vast living area with a wood-burning fireplace, surrounding the double-height dining room. […] The spatial richness obtained through the organization of the different levels is taken to a notable degree of sophistication, as revealed, for example, in the horizontal opening that in the vestibule announces the dining room and establishes visual communication with it.”, writes critic Daniele Pisani.
