Apartment MO sets a calibrated industrial tone high above the Jardins neighborhood in São Paulo, Brazil, where Zalc Arquitetura reworks a compact apartment for flexible living. Conceived for an owner who lives abroad yet may return, the renovation balances rental practicality with the possibility of future personal use through a precise reorganization of social and private areas. Its compact footprint now frames a generous daily routine rather than a constrained plan.
The FF Apartment, designed by Zalc Arquitetura, blends a striking industrial style with warm elements in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Combining two 50 m² apartments into a 100 m² space, the design utilizes materials like handmade hydraulic tiles and charred wood to create a cozy atmosphere amidst the predominance of sober tones, such as black and exposed concrete.
Zalc Arquitetura redesigned the 240-square-meter Apartment FT in São Paulo, Brazil, in 2020. The renovation prioritized functionality and integration, featuring changes like decorative hydraulic tiles and a green-toned mashrabiya in the entrance hall.
The project focused on social areas, integrating the terrace and living room. Intimate areas saw minimal intervention, preserving children’s suites and transforming others. Exclusive design pieces and strategic color use highlight the aesthetic continuity throughout the space.
