VD House by Guilherme Torres
Designed in 2013 by Guilherme Torres, this amazing retro apartment featuring a golf course view is situated in Curitiba, Brazil.
Description by Guilherme Torres
Situated in Curitiba, Southern Brazil, the apartment has a privileged view of a golf course.
Starting from a pre-existing base, the architect chose to coat all the walls with carved woodwork. In doing so, he managed to hide several doors and disguise wall recesses, while at the same time creating hidden storage. The design has drawn all the attention to a glass wall which reveals the delightful view of the neighboring golf course.
A large volume of stone creates a niche for the fireplace and decorates the whole of the living room, forming a sideboard for the dining table, which is perfectly integrated into the other architectural features of the project. Little furniture, mostly designed by the architect himself, enhance the smooth, young and Brazilian decoration, but with international DNA.
