Originally part of a larger commercial space that was subdivided into smaller residential areas, OCRE Arquitetura transformed an open plan empty shell into a cosy, comfortable urban studio with an integrated living, sleeping, and dining area. Striking forest-green doors and a slatted green panel mask a full-length wardrobe and a retractable bed, revealing extra storage space and a small reading bench when extended. Custom joinery separates the compact kitchen from the living space, while a built-in plywood desk and overhead shelf visually unify and lengthen the apartment. Complementing the colourful green walls are reddish-orange cabinetry in the bathroom, adding pops of colour amongst the minimalist wooden and grey palette. By efficiently maximising space, the original open layout has been transformed into an intimate respite in the middle of vibrant Southern Brazil.
