ISS Apartment是位于巴西圣保罗的极简主义公寓，由Atelier PECLAT CHOW设计。客户是一位40岁的希腊单身人士，深陷艺术世界，在巴西生活了近8年，并要求Atelier PECLAT CHOW对位于圣保罗时尚街区 Jardins的公寓进行全面翻新。这套1960年代的公寓已经有50多年没有修复过了，因此工作室提出了一个完全不同的设计方案。

ISS Apartment is a minimalist apartment located in São Paulo, Brazil, designed by Atelier PECLAT CHOW. The client, a single 40 years-old Greek who’s deeply involved in the artsy world, has lived in Brazil for almost 8 years and requested the Atelier PECLAT CHOW to completely renovate a 1960’s apartment located in the trendy neighborhood of Jardins, in São Paulo. The apartment hasn’t been restored in over 50 years, in that way we proposed a completely different layout.

墙壁和胡桃木门包围形成入户区域。走向起居室，房间中心立着的是一块漂浮的木制巨石，它似乎已与入口大厅分离。这个体量的巨石体现了空间的永恒感，同时也无形中实现了厨房和客厅之间的分隔。

As one enters the apartment one sees itself surrounded by walls and doors wrapped in brushed walnut paneling, as one walks towards the living space you perceive at its heart a floating wooden monolith which seems to have been detached from the entrance hall. This volume embodies the space with a sense of permanence and also acts as an invisible separation between the kitchen and the living room.

三间旧卧室和一间浴室最终被改造成了一个宽敞的双套间卧室，这是通过将外围走廊移动到公寓中心实现的。从某种意义上说，曾经位于走廊的宽大窗户，在主套间的浴室里有了新的用途。

The old three bedrooms and one bathroom apartment were converted into a two ensuite bedroom with generous space. This was only possible by moving the peripheric hallway to the center of the apartment. In a way that, what was a generous window lost in a hallway, got a new purpose on the master ensuite bathroom.

一些60年代的原始砖块仍然裸露在外，但在砖块表面上了一层白色的灰泥，以此来体现客户的希腊血统以及圣保罗的城市景观。通过这种改造，裸露的砖块焕然一新。

The materials palette was kept to the essential. Some of the originals bricks from the ’60s were kept exposed, but with a white stucco layer on top of it – referring to the Greek origins of the client as well as the urban landscape of São Paulo. With this solution, the exposed bricks gained a new delicate, and soft dimension.

Calacatta大理石用于厨房和浴室台面。屋内铺设Peroba云母硬木板，木板错落安装，彰显其独特性。

Calacatta marble was used for the kitchen and bathrooms countertops. Floors were covered in Peroba Mica hardwood, with joints between each wood board purposefully separate in order to enrich each’s uniqueness.

工作室为项目精心挑选了一些家具，包括从Zanine到Hauner出色的中世纪现代巴西设计，以及一些由工作室设计的当代作品，这些家具的搭配最终达到了温暖、平静和精致的效果。

The furniture meticulously selected for this project comprises of a well-balanced mix of some of the very finest mid-century modern Brazilian designs, raging from Zanine to Hauner, along with some contemporary pieces designed by the Atelier. The outcome is warm, calm, and refined.
