FL Residence by Anastasia Arquitetos

The FL Residence is a luxurious modern dwelling located in the Santa Crzu Cabralia district in Brazil. This stunning residence offers just under 12,000 square feet of luxurious living spaces on a single-story, however, landscaping plays a key role in this design and as such, it is integrated masterfully within the interior areas as well as the outdoor spaces. It was designed by Anastasia Arquitetos, a studio you might recognize from our showcase of their Belvedere Residence project in Belo Horizonte.

Residence FL is located in Santo AndrΓ©, in the district of Santa Cruz CabrΓ‘lia, Bahia, on a 20,000 m2 terrain in Alameda do Araripe Condominium. The implantation of the residence was determined by the position of the terrain facing the beach. It is divided into 3 main blocks connected by covered, but open, circulations. Generous gardens separate them, transforming functional circulations into the enjoyment of nature.

On the first block, there are 3 guest suites. On the second block is the social area, with living and dining rooms, a kitchen, and services. On the third block, suites on the 2nd floor generate an open piloti on the lower floor, which is the large balcony of the house that functions as a leisure area. In this way, the view of the beach from the living area of the second block is not obstructed by the third block. In such a manner, all suites face the beach, and consequently, the morning sun. Also, the guest suites face east.

The north and west facades are protected either by ceramic brick cobogΓ³s or by large pivoting doors that function as mobile brises. As it is a summer house, it was designed for low-cost maintenance, and, due to the difficulty of access (by ferry), we opted for a more traditional construction system, which could incorporate local labor, despite the fact that the construction company was from another region. Thus, we work with a reinforced concrete structures and masonry closures. Most of the woodwork was done by local workers, in addition to the ceramic bricks, manufactured in the village itself.
