Brisa House

São Paulo, Brazil

The Brisa House project redefines the concept of home, combining
design, sustainability, and innovation. With its vertical structure
and expansive sea views, the large windows and strategic use of the
balcony maximise visual contact with the sea and the surrounding
nature, providing an immersive experience.

The design stands out with signature pieces like the Equilíbrio and
Libélula tables. Natural stone and technologies resistant to sunlight
and salt air ensure durability, while also facilitating cleaning and
maintenance. The windows and balconies maximise the connection
with nature, creating a unique experience that promotes the well-
being of the residents.

Brisa not only respects the geographical and cultural context in which
it is set but also offers its residents a space that is modern, functional,
and deeply connected with nature.

An elegant way to illuminate.
In terms of innovation, the project stands out for its intelligent use
of materials and adaptive design. The eight metre long tensioned
canvas light fixture, for example, is not just a light source but also a
centrepiece that changes its appearance with the daylight, replicating
the colours of the sunset and adding a dynamic dimension to the
space. Additionally, the gourmet area combines practicality and
design. Featuring a sink, a dry bar for organising bottles, as well as
wine coolers and storage drawers, the space is designed for stylish
entertaining.
