The Galeriah house is situated on a completely flat plot near the Paraba River in the city of So Jos dos Campos SP. It was designed for a couple who, with the arrival of the pandemic, felt the need to enjoy outdoor spaces that a residence can provide. Architect Priscila Pereira accompanied the clients from the moment of choosing the land.Save this picture!All the couple's peculiarities were taken into account in the conception of the house's program. As a result, we have a gym on the second floor, overlooking a preserved green area, which is connected to the main suite of the house and, through a spiral staircase, also connects to leisure areas such as a sauna and pool on the ground floor.Save this picture!The house also includes two other suites to accommodate the couple's children and nieces and nephews, and a gallery space (which gives the house its name) as a multifunctional area, with walls free of openings and interferences dedicated to the exhibition of art and the couple's private pieces.Save this picture!The house features projections that deviate from right angles, with openings arranged internally, giving the facade a unique plasticity, entirely sculptural and minimalist. All internal rooms open to the leisure area, which includes a generously sized pool.Save this picture!The internal openings for leisure, facing the west side, feature a second skin made of various modules of aluminum brise, providing an internal facade in constant motion and ensuring privacy for the bedrooms even when their windows are open.Save this picture!The first module, in a coffee tone, represented by Cosentino's Dekton Radium Industrial, encompasses the arrival area for residents and visitors. After entering, there is a transition to a linear module with a light and soft tone, where Cosentino's Dekton Aeris covers internal and external floors, the pool, and countertops.Save this picture!There is minimal variation in finishing materials throughout the space, which contributes to the experience between fluid and delineated spaces marked only by the arrangement of furniture.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessAbout this officeMaterialConcreteMaterials and TagsPublished on January 12, 2025Cite: "Galeriah House / Okha arquitetura e design" [Casa Galeriah / Okha arquitetura e design] 12 Jan 2025.
