Magnificent Artistic Home with an Art Gallery in Brasil

Casa Je, designed by Humberto Hermeto, lies on a 3160 m2 terrain in Nova Lima, Brazil. It was constructed like a multi-functional structure: an entertaining space at the ground level, a comfortable resting space with bedrooms at the next level and an art studio and gallery at the bottom level. The house was constructed on a slope, so it was the perfect terrain for the beautifully constructed and designed home that meets the client`s needs. Built on 1240 m2, the house placed on a hill overlooks an amazing valley, so it needed to take advantage of all the features of the terrain. An elevator connects the different levels of the residence. The central core of the house is the residential level, which is distributed under a continuous 81 meters roof.

Amazing landscapes can be enjoyed from any room in the house. The main entrance sits above a set of stairs that leads to an incredible porch at the back of the house. This deck covers the art gallery and extends into the backyard where the architects built a pool and the garden area. Exterior colours and textures continue on the inside, where they melt into an interior design that is best suited for strong, artistic individuals. Large floor to ceiling windows offer views of the mountains nearby and build a great desire of breathing in natural shapes and fresh air. Concrete and wood used to build the home was softened by red accents all throughout the garden as a reminder of the strong personality the house radiates. Even the large doors of the gallery are painted red as a reminder of the border between art and nature.

Modern Hill House of Lima Residence

Here is The Lima Residence, a modern hill house that designed by Abramson Teiger Architects where located in in Calabasas, California. Situated on the edge of a natural preserve this house takes full advantage of the uninterrupted natural landscape that it faces. A series of connected folding roof and wall planes clad in metal were strategically positioned to accentuate views of canyon below and mountains beyond. At points the folded walls lift up revealing poured in place concrete walls that enclose much of the first floor spaces. The compound consists of the main house building and the garage, guest room building which are separated by a courtyard. The house form is a rectangle, in plan, with the long side composed of large glass doors and windows that face the view. The plan is essentially open with living -dining room and family room separated by a free-standing cabinet.

Natural Landscaping of Lima Residence

The living –dining space is voluminous with its 14 foot high ceilings and clear story windows. It opens to the kitchen which runs perpendicular to the main space. The dining sequence transverses the living space in a series of spaces that each open up to the other and to the exterior in a dramatic manner. The kitchen has a series of sliding doors that disappear into a wall resulting in the exterior eating patio and the kitchen to be unified as one eating cooking environment. Likewise the kitchen and formal dining area are open to each other and are on the same axis. They face the view and connect to the exterior with another set of sliding doors that open up completely.

Opened Dining Room of Lima Residence

The form of the house is conceived as a series of folding roof planes clad in factory painted charcoal gray metal. At some points the metal roof is either folded up or down to become wall planes. These walls frame openings that are focused on the view to the hills beyond. At points the folded walls lift up revealing poured in place concrete walls that are part of the first floor enclosure. A wood grained phenoelic resin clad “box” protrudes from the house. The “box” which is a storeroom, has a greater purpose of truncating the visual axis on approach to the glass front door, and is an integral part of the enclosure that makes up the exterior eating patio. The wood grained resin panel box thrusts into the house, containing the kitchen, and introducing a warm hue to compliment the palette of natural materials.

There is a strong indoor outdoor connection reinforced by large sliding doors and glass walls that visually unite the interiors with the exterior.
