ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD

Harmony and integration with greenery

Located in the South Zone of Rio, Jardim Botânico connects Gávea and Humaitá, in addition to being surrounded by Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, another postcard of Rio.

At one end is the Botanical Garden, a scientific institution established in 1808 by Dom João VI, from which the neighborhood derives its name. At the other end is the famous Parque Lage, which, in addition to common leisure areas, houses the School of Visual Arts. The Vista Chinesa, its trails and waterfalls, as well as studios and dining spaces, coexist harmoniously in the area, which was once home to sugar mills.
coffee and factories.

The abundant vegetation and proximity to the lagoon give the Botanical Garden a milder temperature than the average for Rio de Janeiro. A true invitation to explore all its spaces.

Gentle connection with time and nature

Harmony and integration with greenery and urban areas

The art of retrofit

The architecture, as well as the landscaping, captures the restoration and updating of a 1920s building, uniting it with another vertical structure at the back of the property. A fusion of the old and the new, 100 years of history.

Project Architecture
THE ARCHITECTURAL PROJECT

Architecture integrated into space and time

The rich, centuries-old architecture of old Rio is the starting point for a journey through time. Explore the history of the city and neighborhood, and discover the dynamics of modern life and the practicality of contemporary architecture.

The Verdê project seeks to respect the building as much as possible, highlighting its main architectural elements—staircases, window frames, roofs, and ornaments. The contrast between contemporary and historic is evident throughout the development, and the transition between the mansion and the building creates a seamless transition between the new and the historic.
