Gravura Perdizes

History

Gravura Perdizes was born of an assembly exercise: throughout 2020, Tegrai gathered a set of houses on the block between Rua Heitor Penteado, Rua Paracué, Rua Aimberê and Rua Apinajés until it formed a 3,394 m² plot — a size that practically no longer exists ready-made in this part of Perdizes. The incorporation memorandum was registered in April 2021 with the 2º Registro de Imóveis de São Pauloi, under an affectation estate, and the launch came in May of the same year. For the project, the developer assembled a trio of signatures: Königsberger Vannucchii for the architecture, Fernanda Marquesi for the interior architecture and Alex Hanazakii for the landscaping. The condominium was delivered in 2024.

• Concept: the full size of a traditional neighbourhood — 157 m² with up to four bedrooms and a private lift — on a plot large enough to hold more than fifteen leisure spaces, three hundred metres from the metro.
• Trivia: the 3,394 m² plot holds two distinct condominiums, with addresses on different streets: the residential building, which opens onto Rua Aimberê, and a studio tower, which opens onto Rua Paracué. And the address has two official geographies at once — it is Sumaré for the post office and Perdizes for the municipal district, which is also the name the market and the building itself have adopted.

Architecture and aesthetics

Königsberger Vannucchii resolved the tower through the solid-and-void play of the facade: staggered volumes, recessed terraces and continuous glazing that make the building read like an engraved plate — the name is no accident. The layout frees up the ground floor for the leisure programme and the garden, and that is where Alex Hanazakii comes in, working the floor as a sequence of outdoor spaces — water mirror, deck, plaza, bungalows — instead of a single courtyard. The interiors of the common areas are by Fernanda Marquesi, who brought to the halls and lounges the sober palette and straight-lined cabinetry that are the office’s signature.

Perdizes: the address

Two names for the same address

The plot sits on the border between Perdizes and Sumaré, and both names are legitimate. The postcode records Sumaré; the high-end market treats the address as Perdizes. This entry adopts the name in common use and keeps the other for those searching by it.

Perdizesi is the neighbourhood São Paulo uses as its counter-argument: whenever someone says the city doesn’t know how to age well, someone points here. Traditional schools, PUC, lively street commerce, mature tree cover and a residential core that never turned into a corridor. This stretch, at the top of Rua Aimberê, sits at the seam with Vila Madalenai — Estação Vila Madalenai is a few minutes’ walk away, and Avenida Sumaréi, Rua Heitor Penteado and Avenida Professor Alfonso Bovero open access to the ring roads and the expanded centre. Parque da Água Brancai is on the other side of Avenida Sumaré. It is an address of a dual nature: the quiet of an inner street with the bohemian life and galleries of Vila Madalena a walk away.
