CTP Apartment by Voa Arquitetura
CTP Apartment in São Paulo, Brazil, is a renovation of an apartment shaped by open views and a quieter daily rhythm. VOA Arquitetura reorganizes the plan for the resident family, bringing the social areas closer to the treetops outside. The result is a calm interior in which light beige surfaces, terracotta-clad columns, and a careful layout give the home a clearer sense of flow.
About CTP Apartment
The renovation of CTP Apartment focuses on the view and on the connection between rooms. Designed by VOA Arquitetura in São Paulo, Brazil, the apartment in Itaim Bibi is reorganized to create a more open and functional social area with a minimalist, comfortable atmosphere.
The new layout responds to the needs of the resident family and builds on the building’s existing architectural elements. Rather than covering them up, the project gives them a clearer role in daily life.
Round columns in the social area become one of the main parts of the interior. Clad in terracotta, they add warmth to the composition and strengthen the sculptural quality of the structure.
Large glass façades also shape the renovation. The architects use the treetop views around the building to guide the arrangement of the rooms, bringing the exterior landscape closer to daily routines and increasing the presence of greenery inside the apartment.
A neutral material palette sets the tone, with light beige applied to the walls and ceiling. Small touches of color appear in furniture and decorative objects, creating restrained contrast and drawing attention to selected points in the room.
A shelving unit organizes the social area and separates the living room from the home office. Set in the gap between the wall and one of the columns, it stays slightly detached from the structure, so the original reading of the column remains intact.
The apartment now reads as a light, integrated interior where architecture, materiality, and landscape work together. Comfort comes through clarity, with the surrounding trees remaining part of everyday life.
