Maison Giselle

History

By Zaboi, with architecture by KomArquiteturai and landscaping by Benedito Abbudi, Maison Giselle is part of the developer’s Maison luxury line, in a prime address of the Jardinsi, a few steps from Jardim Pamplona Shoppingi, Colégio Dante Alighierii and Club Athletico Paulistanoi. It is a pet-friendly building.

• Concept: pet-friendly high-end living from the Maison line, with balanced floor plans, in the Jardinsi.
• Curiosities: it is part of Zaboi‘s Maison collection, a fleet of sibling buildings across the Jardinsi and surroundings, alongside Maison Helenai, Maison Josephinei and Maison Madeleinei.

Architecture and aesthetics

Contemporary and sober, designed by KomArquiteturai — a São Paulo firm that moves between large-scale urban work and residential projects, bringing here the same discipline of plan. The building’s gesture turns inward: a three-metre ceiling height, acoustic treatment and the gourmet balcony as the unit’s central feature, so that the façade is, in practice, the design of that balcony repeated up to the duplex penthouse that crowns the tower. On the ground floor, Benedito Abbudi‘s landscaping ties together the garden and the zen space in a building born pet-friendly — here the common greenery has a use, not just a frame. The interior design credits are not publicly documented and, for that reason, are not attributed here.

Jardim América: the address

Two names for the same address

The plot sits on the border between Jardim América and Jardim Paulista, and both names are legitimate. The postcode registers Jardim Paulista; the high-end market treats the address as Jardim América. This entry adopts the name in common use and keeps the other for those searching by it.

Jardim Américai is the garden neighbourhood that Companhia City opened at the start of the twentieth century over Barry Parker’s layout, and the large-plot-with-set-back-house rule is still what sets this part of the city apart: the greenery is private, but it is the passer-by on the pavement who enjoys it. Rua Peixoto Gomidei runs down from the vicinity of Avenida Paulistai cutting across the alamedas, and number 1389 sits in the stretch where the postcode already says Jardim Paulistai and the character of the street is still that of the garden neighbourhood — the overlap of the two is what the market calls Jardinsi. In practice, that puts Trianoni, Colégio Dante Alighierii, Escola Harmoniai and Jardim Pamplona Shoppingi within walking distance, with Estação Trianon-MASPi less than a kilometre away.
