Modernist Residence Restored By Arthur Casas And Designed By Artigas

Located on a quiet residential street in Pacaembu, with easy access to the amenities of Higienópolis and Perdizes, this modernist residence designed by Vilanova Artigas was restored by architect Arthur Casas, combining sophistication with architectural authenticity. The house stands out for its generous front setback with signature landscaping and an elevated façade supported by columns. It offers two entrances: one through a stone staircase and ramp, and another pedestrian side entrance. The address features a 24-hour security post. The three-story residence is connected by its original restored elevator. On the main level, the integrated living area includes sitting, dining, and TV spaces with a fireplace and large windows that provide natural light and views toward Higienópolis. The breakfast room connects to the kitchen through a marble pass-through counter. The kitchen is equipped with white custom cabinetry and built-in appliances. Also on this floor are a guest lavatory in Carrara marble and a service area with pantry. The outdoor area features a heated lap pool surrounded by landscaping with a jabuticaba tree, accessible from both the living area and the upper floor. The top level houses three bedrooms facing the back garden, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet, bathtub, and shower with a skylight. Two additional spacious bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a linen closet complete this level, along with an office that opens onto a balcony and has direct access to the pool deck. The residence also includes solar panels, air conditioning in the bedrooms, and finishes such as narrow-strip wood flooring throughout the social and intimate areas. A preserved example of modernist architecture enhanced by contemporary details that emphasize comfort and design.
