Bellis Vila Nova Conceição

History

From Munir Abbudi, built by Tecnumi, with architecture by Aflalo/Gasperinii, landscaping by Somai and decoration by Juliana Abbudi, Bellis is anchored on a quiet street, parallel to Av. Santo Amaroi, a few blocks from Ibirapuerai and Praça Pereira Coutinhoi. The architecture is slender, with straight lines and a minimalist massing.

• Concept: slenderness and minimalism, with generous terraces facing east.
• Trivia: the exposed-concrete planters mark out the façade and give the building its identity.

Architecture and aesthetics

Here the façade does not receive ornament: it produces it. The exposed concrete of the planters is the only break in an otherwise entirely straight, slender volume, and the floor-by-floor repetition is what gives the building its design. The minimalism has a function — vegetation climbs up the building’s face and the terraces face east, so that morning light enters through the front the design chose to open. The slenderness is also born of constraint: on a plot of under six hundred square metres, aflalo/gasperinii resolved the programme vertically, with cross ventilation, noise-resistant glass and frames, a generator for one hundred per cent of the load and a lift that opens into a private hall. Decoration by Juliana Abbudi and landscaping by Somai.

Vila Nova Conceição: the address

Rua Dina runs parallel to Avenida Santo Amaroi, one block from the busiest axis on the western edge of Vila Nova Conceição — and that one block of distance is what the address delivers: the quiet of an inner street with avenue access. The trade-off is the park. From here, the walk to Parque Ibirapuerai runs past six hundred metres, more than from the heart of the neighbourhood; in exchange, the immediate surroundings handle the week without a car, with both units of Escola Nova Lourençoi two hundred and fifty metres away, Hospital São Luizi at three hundred and Edifício Corporate Parki practically next door. This is the stretch where Vila Nova touches Itaim Bibii and starts to work as a business district too.
