The unobstructed horizon both to the sides and in front of this residence in Bragança Paulista, 90 kilometers from São Paulo,
makes it seem as if the building is floating – or not even really . Even from the facade,
Candida Tabet 's project is imposing: A wooden latticework canopy, elegantly supported by the edge of the roof, protects the poolside balcony from the sun and rain. The infinity pool, in fact,
seems to come to life and overflow from the screen , extending a wide panoramic view of the city from of the north facade.

From the external roof,
the living room projects itself with a natural continuity . The 1,127
m² residence follows the gentle contours of the sunlight, which immerses the entire interior area in a tropical dream. The beautiful mesh of light that enters through the brise-soleil leaves its geometric design stamped all over the floor and walls of the open areas of the residence. The abundant light is essential to the work of Candida Tabet, who makes the solar poetics a destination to pour her work . (Rômulo Fialdini/CASACOR)
In the electrifying incursion of
challenging the limits between interior and exterior , we find buildings that are not limited to architecture, but are true
temples of the extraordinary , which reflect the careful and detailed gaze of the professional who has headed the eponymous office for over 20 years.

Another symbol of Candida Tabet's design is the contemporary approach to
good living , which appears side by side with original practices and solutions of good architecture in her work. In this house, the beautiful
exposed structure is perhaps the best representation of this, as it assumes not not only
aesthetic but also structural character in the project . In it, large cantilevers were balanced with minimal supports, made possible only thanks to the use of
Eucalipitus Grandis wood. This also made it possible to create dry slabs mounted on the construction's laminated beams and pillars.

As for furniture, it is worth highlighting the architect's unchanging passion for designer furniture that seems to have been designed
especially for the environments in which it is used . And that is exactly what happens: sometimes, design pieces that fit perfectly into the decor come to Tabet's mind. just by looking at the layout. See more photos of the residence in the gallery below:
