Horácio Lafer Autoria

History

Horácio Lafer Autoria is the launch by Namouri — a São Paulo developer and builder founded in 1976, with a little over sixty projects and more than a million square metres built, much of it in Itaimi itself, in Moemai and in Vila Nova Conceiçãoi. The design is by Pablo Slemensoni, the most recurring architect in the portfolio, with decoration by Nildo Joséi and landscaping by Alex Hanazakii. The product’s name says what the developer meant: an address of authorship, on a 1,650 m² plot on one of the avenues that stitch Itaim to Parque do Povoi.

• Concept: one residence per floor, from the first to the last storey, instead of the density the plot’s size would allow.
• Trivia: the plot area declared by the developer — 1,650 m² — matches exactly what the municipal tax registry records for the lot, which is rare to confirm before the building is finished. The building also reserves eleven motorcycle spaces, an unusual item for the neighbourhood’s high end.

Architecture and aesthetics

The design is a single vertical slab: 34 storeys for 32 residences, one per floor, each with a private storage unit. The distribution isn’t uniform — the base holds two garden flats of 474 and 535 m², the middle repeats the 357.77 m² floor plan with four suites 27 times (with three-suite variants featuring an enlarged living room or a den), and the top is a 726 m² duplex penthouse. Interiors by Nildo Joséi and landscaping by Alex Hanazakii, who signs the base garden.

Itaim Bibi: the address

Avenida Horácio Laferi is one of the streets that makes Itaimi change temperature: it starts in the residential fabric of short streets and ends in the office axis organised between Faria Limai and JKi. That’s why number 73 is a walk from Parque do Povoi and, at the same time, within reach of Shopping JK Iguatemii and the concentration of fine dining on Joaquim Florianoi and Bandeira Paulistai streets. The neighbourhood charges for this convenience with movement: there’s no quiet, tree-lined street here like in the Jardins, but rather the continuous energy of a district that works and dines in the same block — which, for the resident who chose Itaim, is exactly the point.
