Nestled amidst the lush Atlantic Forest near São Paulo, the Iporanga House is a stunning testament to harmonious architecture and interior design. Conceived as a serene summer retreat, this five-story marvel seamlessly integrates into its natural surroundings, offering breathtaking coastal vistas from nearly every angle.
Architect David Bastos and interior designer Marina Salles have masterfully crafted a living space that maximizes the connection between indoors and out. The house’s layout is a study in spatial brilliance, with private quarters tucked away on the lower levels for tranquility, while the upper floors are dedicated to communal living and entertainment. Expansive glass panels frame the living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating an open, airy atmosphere that invites the outdoors in. The crowning jewel is the top floor, where a sprawling terrace, complete with a pool, offers panoramic views of the ocean.
Inside, the Iporanga House is a celebration of natural materials and refined taste. Durable Cumaru wood and cool granite blend seamlessly with a curated collection of family heirlooms, contemporary Brazilian designs, and custom pieces by Marina Salles. The result is a space that is both inviting and effortlessly stylish.
