You Aimberê
Aimberê by You, Inc. offers a fresh approach to urban living by seamlessly integrating natural elements and architectural features into the fabric of its neighborhood. This mixed-use project is located on a prominent street in Perdizes, close to an upcoming subway station on Line 6-Orange.
Drawing inspiration from traditional gabled-roof houses, Aimberê blends harmoniously with its lush surroundings, creating a cohesive and vibrant urban environment.
Situated on a spacious 2,000-square-meter plot with an L-shaped configuration and an 8-meter elevation difference between its two facades, the design uses a dynamic arrangement of volumes to separate residential and non-residential spaces, all within a single tower that spans 27 floors.
The lower volume, facing João Ramalho Street, accommodates non-residential units. The connection between the two volumes occurs between the 4th and 5th floors through a grandstand, bridging the terrain’s elevation difference to create an open leisure space overlooking Sumaré Avenue, a significant thoroughfare in the neighborhood. In this leisure environment, a pool and a greenhouse with a garden—whose structure recalls traditional gabled-roof houses—encourage residents to connect with nature.
In addition to the intermediate level, the development includes recreational spaces on both the ground floor and the 27th floor. The ground floor features a barbecue area, coworking space, fitness center, pet area, and laundry facilities, while the 27th floor houses a second greenhouse. Positioned over 90 meters above ground, this elevated space offers a bold invitation to experience the city from a fresh perspective.
Developed during one of the most restrictive periods of the COVID-19 social pandemic, You Aimberê reflects the desire for proximity to nature and quality coexistence, with common areas being one of its core strengths.
“This period has offered us a valuable insight: biophilia has the great power to increase our well-being and improve mood. Thus, almost naturally, landscaping and green areas have taken on a prominent role in the project, evoking the green yards of Perdizes’ houses,” says Fabio Pittas, a senior project architect in our São Paulo studio.
