Maré House / Studio Bloco Arquitetura

closed

The living room, facing the rear of the property with a view of the lake, embodies an atmosphere of warmth and serenity, reflecting the intentional integration with nature through the palette of primary materials present throughout the project.On the ground floor are the social areas, service areas, and garage. The intimate area is distributed between the two floors, with one suite on the ground floor and the others on the second floor, including a balcony overlooking the front lot.From the entrance, the visitor is enveloped by two sinuous planes, constructed with solid bricks, which challenge the perception of gravity and establish a smooth transition to the adjacent garden. This garden is dominated by an imposing Guabiju tree, seven meters in height, visible from both the entrance and the upper floor balcony.Technology is employed subtly yet effectively, with lighting, curtain, and sound automation, as well as the use of high-performance windows, appliances, sanitary ware, and metalware, aiming to optimize the comfort of the home's users.In terms of functionality, the use of concealed built-in appliances is a strategy adopted to create a sense of massiveness in the preparation area, promoting a shared experience during family and friends' culinary moments, so characteristic of weekends at the beach.Text description provided by the architects.The Maré House epitomizes the relaxed and airy spirit of a typical coastal residence. Its configuration comprises two overlapping volumes, delineated by two wooden slabs that create covered outdoor spaces and eaves for solar protection.Continuity is a key element, evidenced by the harmony of the ceiling and floor materials that extend from the external area to the internal spaces. The relaxed atmosphere is amplified by the careful selection of loose furniture, designed by young Brazilian designers, and the combination of textures, ranging from different wood veneers, brushed natural rocks, satin lacquer, stainless steel, leather, straw, and linen in various shades.In summary, the Maré House transcends the concept of a simple seaside dwelling, incorporating elements of design, comfort, and integration with nature to provide a unique and memorable experience for its occupants.
