Text description provided by the architects. The project was executed in 3 contiguous lots in the Cidade Jardim neighborhood. On the central plot, the house was designed in the 1970s by Roberto Aflalo. On one of the side lots, a grove. On the other, space for annex/expansion. To integrate the whole set, we started with the structural modulation of the Aflalo house. We worked with alignments and structural balances that created a clear dialogue and a sense of unity between the different phases. The Aflalo house has been completely renovated. In the living room, the complete plaster ceiling was replaced by a partial wooden ceiling, exposing the core of the ribbed slab, but hiding the hydraulic infrastructure of the intimate area above.
