Malibu House

The unusual design of the land of this house - triangular in the shape of a funnel facing the street - was the great challenge of the architect Aquiles Nícolas Kílaris when designing this house. Initially, the owner had imagined a narrow facade and the house growing towards the bottom, following the shape of the land. Kílaris suggested something different, completely changing this conception. He designed the house across the land horizontally, thus creating a large and imposing facade. The tip of the land was used as a parking lot for the cars of friends and family who frequent the place. The house, designed for businessmen with a couple of children, has 545 square meters of built area and is located in Araraquara, in the interior of São Paulo. The property has two floors, on the ground floor, the integrated social area includes living room with double height and wall with 3D coating, home theater, dining room, home office, kitchen and leisure area. The clean and contemporary decor is signed by the interior designer Iara Kílaris. In the home theater, a pivoting door keeps the space separate from other environments. Highlight for a panel with 3D image of a city at night. The clean white and chrome home office has a world map panel with chrome blocks and clocks marking the time in Brazil, Canada and Switzerland on the wall. The kitchen is all white, with red hints of decoration. The environment consists of a cooking bench with rounded edges, an iridescent wall covering and a tomato panel. The cooking bench was positioned in front of the glass door overlooking the leisure area. In this way, those who cook can enjoy the whole pool scene. The access to the upper floor can be done by the "S" -shaped staircase or by the hydraulic elevator installed in the house, which opens the door on the mezzanine distribution area of the 1st floor. On this floor are also located four suites, one for the couple, two for the children and one for guests. The master suite has a closet and bathroom with a bathtub and niches with plants that bring nature into the environment. Complementing the project, the leisure area, with gourmet space, organic pool, pergola with waterfall, corners for relaxation and dressing room. All rooms in the house are aimed at this paradisiacal scenario.
