The leading business group on the São Paulo coast, the Mendes Group, has been at the forefront of creating the largest shopping centres in the area, the most comprehensive event centres and the most luxurious hotels, such as the Sheraton Santos Hotel, as well as the most modern residential and shopping developments, such as Praiamar Shopping.

In order to celebrate the many milestones achieved, the family-run group has transformed three flats into a unique office overlooking the city from above. ‘The project aims to emphasise the solidity of the company through the use of noble materials in architectural solutions,’ explains Athié Wohnrath, the studio in charge of the project, with major clients in its portfolio.

The new space boasts an impressive collection of works of art, which the business group has acquired over the years. This is why the architectural concept was approached from a minimalist perspective, so that the place would serve, above all, as a stage for the exhibition of these pieces.

As a result, the interior is elegant, simple and refined, and despite its minimalist style, it manages to be warm and welcoming. ‘We want to inspire people to live unique experiences, building innovative spaces that stimulate creativity and the sharing of ideas, increasing productivity, regardless of the size of the company,’ explain the professionals.

To create this stunning office, which functions as a museum, decision-making centre and meeting point for the members of the Mendes Group and their clients, Wohnrath has been captivated by Cosentino materials.
