The Design

About Atma Edificio de Apartamentos

Atma es un edificio de apartamentos proyectado para un terreno costero en Itapema, Brasil. La edificación se eleva 19 pisos hasta alcanzar una altura de 65 metros y alberga 39 apartamentos de uso estacional distribuidos en 6.919,19 metros cuadrados de área construida. La estructura es de hormigón armado, mientras que la fachada combina paneles paramétricos con carpinterías y acabados de alta tecnología. Una planta triangular genera un volumen prismático que parece transformarse al ser observado desde distintos ángulos. La flexibilidad en la distribución de las unidades permite que cada residente adapte el espacio interior a sus necesidades personales.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: On the iconic facade, parametric modulation brings the design in constant motion. This parametric facade reflects the design concept aimed at the new generation. This was the conceptual beginning for the development of the project. The result is an ever changing building where people will always see a different design, thus creating a landmark for the city and for pedestrians, a new icon.
Dimensions & Packaging: Atma is a project for the construction of apartments for the season, totaling 39 units, 19 floors, 65 meters high and 6.919,19 m2 of built area.

Production Technology: Basically, Atma is based on the use of reinforced concrete throughout its structure, in contrast to the high technology of the parametric panels on the facade. We bring in this project the high technology of the frames and facade finishes as elements of formal appeal.
Design Challenge: The research has always been based on contemporary design, where the user is part of the process, even after the construction of the building. We seek in the conceptual bases of the participative design, the premises for the creation of this project, allied in the technological bases and the thought of the relationship of this project with the future.
Research: The design research focuses on the use of parameterization technology on the facades, with the aim of transforming the relationship of a residential building into a visual landmark on the beach that will be built. Data collection was carried out through the search for images of similar projects and monolithic design, presenting as a real result in business and society, the direct relationship of users and pedestrians, in and around them, as an icon.
Inspiration: This project was inspired by the parametric composition of panels that make up the facades, in a prismatic project, with a triangular shaped plant, in a complex shape for a residential building.
Project Duration: The project started in january 2021 in Itajai and was completed in December 2021 in Itajai, and construction began in January 2022 in the city of Itapema SC, Brazil, with the schedule for completion of the work for November 2024.
Operation Flow: Atma allows the user to have apartments in a young and modern condominium, close to the sea, with the characteristics of intelligent units plants that allow changes, according to the needs of each resident.
