The One Vila Mariana

History

The One was built by Eveni on Rua Conde de Irajá, a short residential street that runs down from Rua Vergueiro into the core between Vila Marianai and Vila Clementino. Construction dates to 2011, during the cycle in which Even shifted part of its output from mid-market to larger addresses along the metro corridor — and Chácara Klabin, with its own station and schools within walking distance, was a natural target for that shift. The development circulates in the market under two names, The One Klabin and The One Vila Mariana, depending on whether the agent prefers the pocket or the neighbourhood; the condominium’s official registration is simply Edifício The One.

• Concept: upscale-neighbourhood floor area with club-level infrastructure, a walk from the metro — Vila Mariana solved without a car.
• Curiosities: the building was set on a raised semi-basement. A fourth-floor apartment effectively has the view elevation of an eighth floor — visitors note the difference as the main advantage of the lower units, which are usually the ones passed over.

Architecture and aesthetics

Contemporary, understated architecture, with no façade gesture: the concept lies in the siting. The raised semi-basement lifts the whole building above street level and frees up the leisure floor, which is therefore not a courtyard squeezed between tower and wall — it fits a lap pool, a court and a children’s area on the same level. The standard floor plans measure 250 m² with four suites and a gourmet balcony integrated with the living room; the duplex penthouse reaches 405 m² with five suites, double-height ceilings in the living room and marble flooring. The architectural project’s credit is not publicly documented and is therefore not attributed here.

Vila Mariana: the address

Vila Marianai is the neighbourhood São Paulo built to function: a regular street grid, lively street-level commerce, three metro lines around its perimeter, and a density of schools and hospitals matched by almost no other part of the city. Rua Conde de Irajá sits in the pocket the market has named Chácara Klabin — the stretch between Rua Vergueiro and Rua Francisco Cruz, flat, tree-lined and almost entirely residential, with the Chácara Klabin metro station at the end of the walk and the Museu Lasar Segall at the neighbourhood’s corner. From there, Avenida Paulistai and Parque Ibirapuerai are a few minutes by car, and Vila Clementinoi and Paraísoi are a continuation on foot. It’s an address that doesn’t depend on status: it depends on routine, and the routine here has been in place for thirty years.
