Educational building - Patio Roof

The upper patio roof.
This video shows a more about the roofing system of the upper patio.
The curved  beams are the main structure of it. It´s clamped on the pillars in a very rigid connection to stablish the set. To help that there´s also cross bracing structures.
The covering system is made by a roof of a thermo-acustic aluminum 1mm zipped tiles.
In the crossing axis, there´s a natural ilumination provides by a shed. In addiction, the shed helps the natural ventilation because let the hot air scape by the top.
It´s not shown on this video the suspend ceeling system.

Educational building -Metal pergola

Metal Pergola.
The first look of the metal pergola that covers the main entrace of the building. This is a nice and smooth transition between outside and inside. In addiction, the width is very narrom and will be covered with a high performance glass.
The structure is made by a simple square 15x15cm section steel profile.  It´s clamped on the main pillar and there is also some risers attached on the upper slab to stablish the set.

BWM Dealership in Florianópolis - Santa Catarina - Brazil - 2009

For this BMW Dealership the client used a former dealership bulding of another Brand as a base to renovation.
In this post, exactly, i will concentrate the explanation on this side building covered with a glass transparent roof that we developed as repair center for used Bmw Cars.
It´s a simple concept using a Base wall on decorative rocks and a metal structure that emerge from this base.
The metal structure was exposed in layers in a way that the user can read it till the final glass roof layer. This is a simple idea for reading all the elements that compose the unity.

Bmw dealership - Salvador - Brazil - 2010

In 2010 i developed a study for a client to approve with the BMW Brazil in a way to construct a dealership in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.
This project was complex because we have to plan a few different activities in the same complex plus a high difficult landscape to settle it.
The direction was to work in several levels to make easy the access to the different functions and mitigate the cuts and fills off the ground.
On the lower part of it we have the main showroom. This is a Glass cube designed to maximize the exposition of the products. The nice details are the metal structure project inside of the glass curtain that support the cladding and the wood ceiling as well.
On the other side of the lower ground we designed another Glass showroom to expose used Bmw cars. On the addction of this two building we have a metal pergola that makes the transition and connect these blocks.
On the top of that, crowning these blocks, we have a closed building containing the repair center and the administration. To access that, you should do it on the upper level of the site.
I do like this project because it combines such different architectural program, a difficult landscape and a nice and balanced volumes.

Casa de cultura do Morro da Garça - Morro da Garça, Minas Gerais, Brazil (2004)

In 2004 i joined Bum desing to developed a proposal in a public context for Cultural Center at Morro da Garça, a little city at the State Minas Gerais.
I was immediately captured to be in this context because of the historical background of this place, site of many romances of Guimarães Rosa, one of the greatest writers of Brazil.
This area is very particular of Brazil. They have a great cusine and a way of living very particular and outside of the routine of the great centers of the country like São Paulo or Belo Horizonte ( the closest capital).
Well, so i am talking about great history, nice cuisine, warm people... For me it´s already a good motivation to be involved with.
The follow images try to translate the project. It´s include a renovation of a local building of 1900 and an add-on of a new building to complement the architectonic program. The complex would rescue .... and provides to the local population, a cultural center with a physical infrastructure for: events, meetings,culinary, art-crafts, library and museum. Aim to rescue the local way of living and expose that to visitors or the next generations.
On the physical resources, the excitement was plus because we could counter-balance the new techniques of construction such as metal structures with the traditional local "taipa de pilão", wich consist of settlement of clay on a wood frame. A rudimentar system, heritage from the arabians.
The text are in portuguese, but the images can talk by their selfs!
