Villa Ibiá

History

From Oittoi, with award-winning architecture by FGMFi, Villa Ibiá is a condominium of three houses in Jardim Paulistanoi, about 350 metres from Clube Pinheirosi, close to the Marginal, Faria Limai and Rebouças. Each house has a private garden, a sundeck with pool and a private lift.

• Concept: the real house, in a gated condominium of three units, with the signature of FGMFi, in Jardim Paulistanoi.

Architecture and aesthetics

Three houses on a 912 sqm plot and three different floor areas, from about 338 to 557 sqm: the FGMFi design did not repeat the same house three times, it fit three distinct houses onto the lot — consistent with a studio that made the absence of a single recipe across projects its own signature. The move that reorganises each unit is the private lift. In a house, a lift is usually a comfort feature; here it changes the hierarchy of the floors, because the sundeck with pool, at the highest point, becomes as accessible as the living room: it stops being an attic and becomes a place to be. The private garden on the ground floor and the sundeck on the roof close the residence from below and above, and between the two sit the deck and the multi-purpose space — the transitional surfaces between inside and outside that recur throughout the studio’s body of work.

Jardim Paulistano: the address

What defines number 664 on Rua Ibiapinópolis is not in the landscape, it is on the zoning map: the lot is ZER-1, strictly residential. It is the kind of rarity that does not depend on what has already been built, but on what can never be — as long as the rule holds, the block will not open to commercial use or to the verticalisation the rest of the district has absorbed. And this is not an isolated street: Esporte Clube Pinheirosi is about 350 metres away, A Hebraicai 251, Parque Bruno Covasi 292 and Iguatemii 500. It is the equation that anyone looking for a house in Jardim Paulistanoi chases and almost never finds complete: two clubs, a park and luxury retail within walking distance, on a block the law prevents from ever becoming an avenue.
