What could have been an obstacle was the solution found by the architects Sarah Bonanno and Marina Cardoso de Almeida, principals of Tria Arquitetura, from Brazil, for the project to renovate the Joaquim Antunes apartment in São Paulo. The concrete structural walls were peeled by the architects and carried a perfect balance between construction and interiors, marked by the use of shades of gray, blue and mustard.

本来可以成为障碍的，是巴西Tria Arquietura的建筑师Sarah Bonanno和Marina Cardoso de Almeida找到的解决方案，负责翻修圣保罗Joaquim Antunes公寓的项目。混凝土结构墙被建筑师剥皮，在建筑和内部之间保持着完美的平衡，其特点是使用了灰色、蓝色和芥末色的阴影。

With 110m², this was the first renovation of the property since its construction in the 70’s. The architectural party, according to the architects, came with the confirmation that the structural walls would need to remain. So the goal was to change the layout, but not radicalize.

这栋建筑面积110平方米，这是自70年代建造以来的第一次翻修。建筑师们表示，建筑派对证实，建筑墙需要保留。所以我们的目标是改变布局，而不是激进。

In the new layout, the service area becamesmaller and gave way to a home office, integrated to the intimate area of the apartment. The kitchen was also integrated into the dining room and living room. In the intimate area, the two bedrooms were kept, but one of them gave space to the TV room of the young couple.

在新的布局中，服务区变得更好，取而代之的是一个家庭办公室，与公寓的亲密区域结合在一起。厨房也被整合进餐厅和客厅。在密室里，两间卧室都被保留着，但其中一间给了这对年轻夫妇的电视空间。

To soften the existence of the concrete, the architects chose to use colors in neutral and complementary tones. In the kitchen, they used coatings that also appear in other areas so that there would not be an aesthetic break and that it would be a continuation of the dining room. In the social and intimate area the original wooden taco floor was maintained, but underwent a restoration. In addition, all electrical and hydraulic parts have also been restored.

为了软化混凝土的存在，建筑师们选择使用中性和互补色调的颜色。在厨房里，他们使用的涂料也出现在其他地方，这样就不会有美学上的突破，这将是餐厅的延续。在社会和亲密的地区，原来的木玉米饼地板得到了维护，但经过了修复。此外，还修复了所有电气和液压部分。

The quest for balance was the great guide of this project. If the decoration was done in dark tones, the result would be something rough and heavy, which was not the customer’s goal. Therefore, despite the concrete element, the cabinet and furniture followed the same soft language in all spaces. Lots of wood, carpentry in pastel colors and furniture in mustard and woody colors brought the desired smoothness to the project.

寻求平衡是这个项目的伟大指南。如果是用暗色调装饰的话，结果会是一些粗糙和沉重的东西，这不是顾客的目标。因此，尽管有具体的元素，橱柜和家具在所有空间都遵循同样的软性语言。大量的木材，油漆色的木工，芥末色和木本色的家具，给这个项目带来了理想的流畅性。

这套公寓还有三个浴室-两个浴室和一个厕所(所有这些都已经改变了)。其中一个在木制甲板上有整个有盖的浴场，给环境带来了一种现代而舒适的感觉。
