About Brickell Business Commercial Building

Brickell Business was inspired by the Miami neighborhood that bears the same name, Brickell. The architecture of Brickell's buildings is quite characteristic, with linear volumes that become prominent at dusk, when the lights come on. Just like there, the proposal was to bring this particularity to the city of Porto Belo. The neighborhood has a specific design, carrying large buildings and yet embracing its vegetation and the surrounding bodies of water. A perfect mix between man and nature, linked to the sophistication and refinement of this noble region of the USA, guided the project.

Production Technology: For this project, a reinforced concrete structure, metal, glass and LED lighting were used. These elements are embraced by vegetation in all the flower boxes spread throughout the development.
Design Challenge: Our biggest challenge was being able to capture all the essence that the Brickell neighborhood brings to us in a single architectural component. A place that is loaded with information and details in a building that aims for minimalism and grandeur at the same time.
Research: It all started when our client took a trip to Florida and came across the grandeur of the Brickell neighborhood. There the dream began. The client brought to us the reference and peculiarities of the place, specifying that the goal was to bring the grandeur of the visited location to a commercial building, where the people who went to work there would have the same sensations as he did when walking through the streets of Miami. After that, we began searching for constructive references and neighborhood stories to arrive at the final result presented.
Inspiration: Brickell Business is a venture that emerges from the mix of the lush coast of Santa Catarina, in the south of Brazil, with the unique essence of Miami. Our fascination with innovation, dynamism and modernity culminated in the opportunity to bring to the city of Porto Belo the inspiration and excellence that we found in Brickell, as every detail of the project greatly reflects the innovation and glamor found there.
Project Duration: The design phase began in April 2023 and was completed in December 2023, construction begins in April 2024 and is expected to be completed in December 2028, on Avenue Hironildo Conceicao dos Santos - Balneario Pereque, Porto Belo, Santa Catarina, Brazil.
Operation Flow: The project's proposal was to bring people a space with comfort, grandeur and tranquility so that their work is more pleasurable and that their clients can also feel comfortable when visiting the place. That's why the building has an entire architecture based on alleviating stress impacts with vegetation, common spaces such as a gym and rooftop to make better use of your time and also good natural lighting. Every detail is intended to take care of others, without losing its grandeur.
