Piratininga Arquitetos Associados have designed this apartment for a trader who shares it with his son, and the project was carried out bearing in mind the fact that the residence is for two men, each of them occupying a part of it, in the ends of the floor. The apartment was reconfigured entirely; the son’s sector corresponds to the former utility area and the father’s area occupies the former bedrooms. In the public space, a volume built of concrete panels holds the equipment storage, pantry, library, refrigerators, television sets, restrooms and others. The Architects have respected the original project dating back to 1952, by Architect Abelardo de Souza, one of the icons of the modernist movement in Brazil.
