Kalvarienberg str.

The garden is planted with araça, bacupari and aroeira trees, all native varieties.

A Bosch stove is now where the sink used to be. The fixtures are by Hansgrohe, rift-sawn red oak cabinetry by GLN, and countertops by Caesarstone.

The sink was relocated to the peninsula, and an open shelf above is higher for head clearance and display opportunity. Rift-sawn red oak covers the refrigerator and adjacent pantry doors.

The home now features an elegant, brick side extension with a rounded form that elevates the view of the home from the garden. “I really wanted a curved wall,” says client Nicola Kendall. “It all began with an image of a house on a mood board I put together on Pinterest.”

The garden is accessed via a narrow side passageway. By curving the front of the side extension, the passageway opens up more generously to the garden and guides visitors around into the entertaining terrace. The bricks are Wienerberger Taylor Maxwell W445 bricks in Wheat.

The backsplash is made from the same green kit kat tiles that clad the island. The worktops are Silestone, a solid surface by Cosentino, and cost $X,XXXX. To save on overhead and profit costs—which are usually calculated by the contractor at 10% to 15%—the clients purchased tapware, kitchen appliances, and lighting themselves. The pendants in the kitchen are Muuto Rime Pendants, which retail for $XXXX for the small and $XXXX for the medium.

Green tiles bring a splash of color to the powder room; the countertop and sink are concrete.

The combined dining room and kitchen has a vintage P376 pendant by Kastholm & Fabricius.

The Bestor Architecture team transformed the kitchen with a more open layout finished with a green zellige tile backsplash from Clé and a lavender laminate on the island. “It’s a color combination you don’t see every day,” admits Campbell. “But playing with jewel tones and a pastel and integrating a punchier, bright color at the banquette just felt right. We liked how they were in conversation with one another.”

This area was previously open to the floor below, so SHED filled it with a built-in window seat and reading nook, with an Isaac sconce from Schoolhouse.

Arkitito Arquitetura opened up the wall between the kitchen and living room.

The goal was to turn the space into a guest suite that “feels like an out of body experience; a Willy Wonka vacation hideaway,” says the designer, who now lives in the ADU

A Kraus faucet is paired with a Delta stainless steel sink. The stainless-steel refrigerator is by Samsung.

A wall between the dining area and kitchen was removed, creating more of a great room-like space. The ceiling plane was given a curve to match the new curved kitchen counter.

The living room required little attention, but the fireplace was painted to help brighten the space.
