Renovate the old house into a modern and comfortable house with breeze block

Located in the oldest part of the city of Asa Sul, Brazil, there is a house built in the 60s of the last century. Because the house has been built for so long, the owner intends to renovate to create new things for his living space while still respecting the tradition.

At Cobogo Apartment, the owners are those who value the traditional aspect but are still open to experimenting with new solutions. The couple's desire for this renovation project is to build a quality living space for the family in the central area of the city. They aim for an open space, a reasonable budget and the application of local materials in the building.

 

With an area of ​​135m², the Cobogo Apartment renovation project is based on the restructuring of space. The clear division of function rooms has become outdated and not suitable for the living habits of the owner. As a result, unnecessary partition walls were removed to create ventilation throughout the living space to the bedrooms.

The laundry room is no longer a place to receive light directly to the northwest, but instead is a kitchen and dining room with a larger area. The laundry area is cleverly designed and uses a sufficient area. Now, from the living room, you can look directly to the kitchen and catch the sparkling light through the breeze block wall without going through any partition.
