Drawing inspiration from the Brazilian Modernist masters—Lúcio Costa, Sergio Rodrigues, Rino Levi, Oscar Niemeyer, for whom it’s named—this striking home celebrates light, open spaces, and a profound connection to nature. 

‍

The Lowdown

Striking a perfect balance with a palette of raw concrete and glass, warm timber and soft rattan, Niemeyer’s interiors masterfully move between sophisticated, design-driven spaces and easy-going pockets for relaxation and serenity; harmonising with the home’s surroundings, glass doors fold away to fully incorporate the garden and pool terrace. Blurring the line between indoor and alfresco living—this remarkable home creates an experience that is equal parts a tropical escape for slow living and a chic, Modernist masterpiece straight out of the pages of Architectural Digest.

Sleeping Arrangements

Three cocooning bedrooms are secluded from the main living areas on both the ground and first floor, offering a quiet escape and soothing solitude with garden or ocean views. All the rooms are en suite, with bathrooms including both bath and shower options. 

‍

What To Expect 

Spanning two levels, the home’s ground floor comprises a series of interconnected living spaces—kitchen, living, and dining rooms—with walls kept to a minimum, allowing rooms to flow seamlessly into each other. Floor-ceiling glass doors fold away to welcome the outside in, with the pool and garden dining areas becoming a natural extension of the living room.

The Art House Difference

Throughout the house, guests can enjoy brilliant moments of architecture and interior design. A striking lightbox above the oversized kitchen island fills the space with softly diffused light, while cleverly placed windows capture beams of light from the shifting sun, deftly highlighting standout features, like the sculptural staircase that leads to the master suite and private office. Spot iconic design pieces from Le Corbusier’s LC4 chaise lounge in the living room to Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chair in the office—days at Niemeyer are design-lover’s dream.
