Edifício Ana Rosa, Architectural ensemble in Liberdade District, São Paulo, Brazil.
Edifício Ana Rosa is a modern residential ensemble in Liberdade District with clean geometric forms and functional design. The building group comprises multiple connected structures with integrated green spaces throughout the site.
The complex was built between 1950 and 1960 by architect Abelardo de Souza as part of the Conjunto Jardim Ana Rosa project. It emerged during a time when São Paulo was growing rapidly and seeking new forms of housing.
The complex shows how residents connect housing with green spaces, reflecting the urban development of São Paulo in the mid-20th century. This approach shaped ideas about how people could live together in modern residential projects.
The ensemble sits near Rua Vergueiro and maintains its original residential function. The site is easily accessible and received heritage protection status from Conpresp in 2015.
The complex combines residential units with private gardens in an innovative way within a densely built area. This balance between privacy and shared space was unusual for its time.
