Residência de Olívio Gomes e Parque Ajardinado, Modernist residence and garden in São José dos Campos, Brazil.

The Olívio Gomes Residence features expansive windows, black accent walls, and water mirrors that connect indoor spaces with the surrounding environment.

Built between 1949 and 1951, the residence served as home to textile industrialist Olívio Gomes, owner of Tecelagem Parahyba, which employed 1,200 workers.

Architect Rino Levi collaborated with landscape designer Roberto Burle Marx to create an integrated space where architecture merges with natural elements.

The property includes eight bedrooms, a games room, swimming pool, covered parking for six vehicles, and extends across an 800,000 square meter protected area.

The window system uses counterweights that allow glass panels to completely retract into the facade, eliminating barriers between interior and exterior spaces.
