Le Parc Residential Resort

History

Le Parc Residential Resort is a resort-style condominium in Vila Sofiai, the Santo Amaroi area, near Estação Adolfo Pinheiroi (Metro Lilac Line) and Colégio Santa Mariai. More accessible in profile than the addresses of the Jardinsi, it offers full leisure facilities in a tree-lined haven, away from the bustle of the centre.

• Concept: the resort-style club condominium, with full leisure facilities, in the South Zone.

Architecture and aesthetics

Le Parc belongs to a very specific family of design: the club condominium of the late 1980s, when São Paulo began trading the standalone building set on the pavement for setback blocks, placed within the plot and surrounded by greenery. That is what explains the word resort in the name — not a façade style, but a way of occupying the land: the blocks pull away from the street, the reception becomes a filter, and the ground between them takes on a pool, a court, a hall and planting, so that the common area stops being leftover space and becomes the heart of the complex. The floor plans belong to the same school: from 110 to 230 sq m, with three and four bedrooms, generous in the living room and circulation, from a time when floor area had not yet been compressed. Delivery was in 1988; the authorship of the architectural project is not publicly documented and is therefore not credited here.

Vila Sofia: the address

Vila Sofiai is one of those neighbourhoods that barely appear on the city’s mental map and that whoever lives there wouldn’t trade: a residential fabric of houses and medium-sized buildings between Santo Amaroi, Jardim Marajoara and Alto da Boa Vistai, with no through avenue cutting across its heart. Rua Libório Glasser sits exactly at that point, and the detail that weighs most in daily life is on a short scale: Colégio Marajoarai is on the same block, eighty metres from the gate — walking the children to school and back, here, is geography, not a promise. Shops, services and healthcare come from the consolidated surroundings of Santo Amaroi, with Boavista Shoppingi and Parque Alto da Boa Vistai around a kilometre away. It’s a region defined by the permanence of its families rather than by the cycle of new launches: those who arrive tend to stay.
