Matisse Apartment Recasts a 1990s Plan into Fluid Brazilian Living
Matisse Apartment sits in Moema, São Paulo, Brazil, where Gurgel D’alfonso reshapes a 1990s apartment into a generous, connected home. The renovation turns former sharp angles and level changes into calm transitions, while a restrained palette and Brazilian furniture anchor family life. Art, natural materials, and carefully tuned light give the residence a collected character that feels both urbane and grounded in local craft.
