Natural beauty

The project of Brazilian interior designer Paola Ribeiro presents the house in Jardim Botânico neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro with contemporary design and traditional craftsmanship.

A comfortable, cozy, lighted home… is the main idea of this project. The client requested privacy in the external area, specially at the pool area for him and his son. To concur that, Paola explored the landscape of that area leaving it cozy and private. The penthouse has a privileged view of Rio de Janeiro. From any window you can see key points, such as the Redeemer Christ Statue, the Sugar Loaf and the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon. It was carried out an installation of solar panels to supply the total warming the house and make it autonomous. The gourmet area by the pool was a special request because the client loves the have friend and family over on weekends.

The apartment is between the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon heliport and the Redeemer Christ Statue, the client requested an acoustic treatment in the living room and bedrooms (that includes floor, ceiling, walls and windows).
