Crafting a Summer Haven
Boa Vista VIII Residence, envisioned by Arquitetura Gui Mattos, emerges as a sanctuary for family retreats amidst the serene backdrop of a lake and sunset vistas. The design ethos draws inspiration from the surrounding landscape, weaving together white volumes punctuated by a vibrant orange-ocher entrance hall that serves as a visual anchor, harmonizing the architectural composition.
Spatial Arrangement: Harmonizing Functions
The residence is orchestrated around two perpendicular rectangles, with the entrance hall acting as a pivotal space that guides circulation flows towards the social and intimate zones or the leisure areas. Responding to the clients’ desire for an art-centric environment, the larger pavilion houses a spacious social area that seamlessly integrates with the art collections, transitioning into a gallery-like space as one approaches the private quarters.
Artistic Expression: Curating Spaces
In response to the clients’ passion for art, the design prioritizes the display and appreciation of artworks throughout the residence. The social area functions as a canvas for showcasing paintings and sculptures, fostering an environment conducive to artistic expression and social interaction. Moving towards the private quarters, the ambiance transforms into a tranquil gallery space, fostering moments of introspection and contemplation.
Spatial Dynamics: Creating Contrast
While the entrance area embraces openness and connectivity with the landscape through collapsible frames, the children’s bedrooms are nestled further back, offering privacy and seclusion. Divided into three distinct blocks, these private sanctuaries introduce a rhythm of volumes, enhancing the spatial dynamics and imbuing the facade with visual interest.
Architectural Finesse: Elevating Design
A wooden-clad slab, supported by metal pillars, crowns the architectural composition, imbuing the residence with a sense of lightness and fluidity. Detached from the main volumes, this elevated structure exudes a sense of independence and dynamism, enriching the architectural narrative with its distinctive form and visual allure.
Conclusion: A Serene Retreat
Boa Vista VIII Residence epitomizes a harmonious fusion of architectural finesse, artistic expression, and natural beauty. From its vibrant entrance hall to its tranquil gallery spaces, the residence offers a sanctuary for relaxation, contemplation, and creative inspiration amidst the idyllic backdrop of the lake and sunset vistas.
