Ultra-Small 30 Sqm Studio Apartment in Brazil Gets a Makeover in White

If you love to browse through studio apartment inspirations, then you will absolutely adore this gorgeous little space in Brazil designed by Leandro Garcia. Dubbed Água Verde Apartment, this lovely little unit was created to maximize space in more ways than one. The living room has a monochromatic white backdrop with wooden floors and color is kept down to a bare minimum. This allows for a more visually spacious apartment where there is no fragmentation of space. Much of the backdrop is occupier by a series of open bookshelves that give varied decorating options. A glass coffee table that morphs into dining table turns the living area into dining room when needed.

Small modular sofa rests next to the spacious bookshelf in the living area along with striped rug that adds color








A striped rug in the living room is the only furniture piece that adds both color and pattern while a small, single-wall kitchen in the backdrop adds woodsy warmth to the setting. It is easy to understand why the designers went for such a small kitchen since much of the living area is occupied by the coffee table / dining table and the modular sofa that leans on to the bookshelf. A door between the bookshelf leads to the small bedroom that is also clad completely in white.

Same area can be used as dining area and the living room whenever needed

  • The Farm

    Jonathan Feldman and his wife Lisa Lougee were determined to create a contemporary, sustainable, and functional home for their family within the building constraints of urban San Francisco. The original structure, built in 1905, was a New England brick and shingle style residence sitting next to an overgrown lot. It was given the tongue-in-cheek name The Farm, due to the rarity of backyards and outdoor living spaces in the city. “We fell in love with the farmhouse charm of the home” says Jonathan, “Lisa and I enjoyed imagining how the house must have looked out in the countryside of San Francisco in the 1900’s; we started joking around and calling it The Farm and it stuck!” To further the play on the home’s name, the Feldman family often lovingly refers to their band of rescue animals as their “flock.” In order to transform the older house into an outstandingly sustainable, modern home, the structure was essentially rebuilt from the inside out. The clients both loved the character and grace of the older home and wanted to preserve its visual continuity; their excitement towards the historic home combined with their conflicting design styles ultimately directed the course of the home’s restoration. Before the ambitious remodel, the house was a closed-off box. The new design opened the floor plan, flooding the interiors with natural light through a new central stair topped with expansive skylights. The basement was also transformed to include what is now a usable rear yard & deck. The house achieved LEED Platinum with an abundance of sustainable features, many of which are subtly hidden. Two types of water re-use systems were implemented on the property; rain water and grey water harvesting, with the tanks concealed below the rear deck. An HRV (Heat Recovery Ventilation) system provides the home with clean air without energy loss. All materials are sustainably sourced and non-toxic and the house also features water and electricity monitoring, easily accessible by panels throughout the home and smartphone technology. By striving for excellence in sustainable architecture while incorporating the design aesthetics of all members involved, the team for The Farm has been able to create an elegant structure perfectly fitting for unique and forward-thinking San Francisco.
