The project aimed to create a leisure area and an apartment associated with a house located on a large plot of land on the banks of the reservoir for a couple who split their time between São Paulo and London. By incorporating new volumes and utilizing underused spaces from the construction done in the nineties, we designed a spa area by the pool, including a sauna, hot tub, indoor pool, and a contemplation patio.
In an unused area, a complete apartment was installed, including a kitchen, fireplace, and bedroom. Illuminated and ventilated by a large skylight, the space is divided by a curtain.
All spaces allow for privacy in relation to other areas of the house, while maintaining a connection to the gardens and natural views of the surroundings.
Using concrete, wood, and glass, the surroundings of the existing pool were reorganized, providing a leisure space with privacy alongside the garden.
