JPGN House by Macedo, Gomes & Sobreira, Brasilia

Designed byΒ Macedo, Gomes & Sobreira,Β JPGN HouseΒ is located inΒ the South Lake residential district inΒ Brasilia.Β The owner of this house had grown up on that same street. The window of his bedroom was opened to the view of the ParanoΓ‘ Lake towards northwest, with the monumental zone ofΒ BrasiliaΒ right at the opposite bank. Β He had witnessed the evolution of that landscape, and intended to keep living together with it. The house was almost fully elevated onΒ pilot, on the edge of the height allowed by urban regulations, opening the view above the neighbors’ roofs.

The living-room, the office, and the master-bedroom – this one with a small terrace – are directly open to the view, as it is indirectly the kitchen – connected to the living-room by sliding panels. The integration between these rooms is also made by a set of continuous cabinets, a stoneΒ counter topΒ and horizontal windows – opened to the front street-view.

The ground level was distributed with small embankments in different levels, in a way to avoid an excessive ceiling height. The garage is on an intermediate level, along with a service area equipped with a freight elevator and an employee bedroom, in a way that it hides the vehicles when seen from the veranda above. A small two-bedroom flat was planned for future occupation of theΒ pilotsΒ  when kids would demand more independence – a plan executed in advance by the owner during the construction, so it would bring more autonomy to the leisure area and allowing the family to haveΒ guests.
