Cadence design + architecture Jan 29

It’s not always easy to add onto a mid-century home without it feeling…added on. This new carport was designed to feel like it’s always been there. Clean lines, careful proportions, a refreshed entry, a wood slat screen, a steel planter, and new lighting. A fresh paint scheme, too. Plantings coming in spring.

Before → 3D Rendering → After.

Big thanks to Alex + the Honeycomb crew for the build!

It’s not always easy to add onto a mid-century home without it looking…added on. This new carport in Krisana Park was designed to feel as if it has been there all along. Intentional, but not flashy, with thoughtful lines and balanced proportions that echo the original architecture.

We kept things crisp and simple: a flat roof with a clean fascia, simple wood posts, and a new entry sequence that reorients the walk and provides a more focused sense of arrival. A custom wood slat screen adds a layer of privacy and rhythm, complemented by a steel planter that brings texture, contrast, and natural plantings. Fresh lighting and a soft, modern paint palette pull everything together.

The result is quiet but confident. The carport doesn’t compete—it completes. It offers shelter and presence without overwhelming the house. Scroll through to see where we started, the vision in rendering form, and how it all came together in the end.

Plantings to come in the spring…

Big thanks to Alex at Honeycomb Construction and his crew for bringing it to life!

🌿✨ Stepping into a masterpiece where glass meets jungle: welcome to Casa de Vidro, Lina Bo Bardi’s iconic 1951 residence in São Paulo’s Morumbi neighborhood.
This isn’t just a house—it’s a bold declaration of harmony between modernist transparency and the wild beauty of the Mata Atlântica. Elevated on slender pilotis, wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, the home literally floats among the trees Lina herself planted over decades. Inside and outside dissolve into one breathtaking dialogue: sunlight filters through leaves, curtains dance with the breeze, and every room feels like an invitation to live more openly, more connected to nature.
Designed as her own home (together with Pietro Maria Bardi), it became a creative sanctuary for artists, thinkers, and visionaries. Today, preserved by the Instituto Bardi / Casa de Vidro, it stands as a timeless reminder that great architecture doesn’t dominate the landscape—it embraces, elevates, and protects it.
Lina once said architecture is “an adventure in which people are called to intimately participate as actors.” Walking through these spaces, you feel exactly that: invited to participate in something revolutionary.
Who else dreams of a home this poetic? Drop a 🌳 if this kind of integration inspires you, or tag a friend who needs to see this Brazilian modernist gem!
