Casa Panama
Award: Yellow Pencil
Yellow Pencil / Environmental Design / Residential / 2009
The site of Casa Panamá, a house built for private clients, is located just some blocks from Paulista, the financial centre of São Paulo. The client has an important art collection, featuring modern Brazilian art, and the property was designed to house this collection. The works of art are scattered throughout the residence, from the bedrooms to the gardens. The stone and the wood, materials that refer to traditional Brazilian buildings, are mixed with modern materials, such as reinforced concrete and plastic, which creates an architectural language.
