7 ideas for mixing floors of different designs

The floor is a part of the project that can both unify and visually delimit two spaces. While not a very common resource, the mix of different floors it is an interesting aesthetic option, especially for open spaces, delimiting spaces with personality and a playful touch.

Take a look in the gallery below 7 projects with integrated environments that dare to mix and know how to achieve the perfect result!

CARPET IN THE GARDEN: In this São Paulo address, interiors and exteriors are relative concepts.  On one side, the dining room has a tauari floor;  on the other, the bungalow has a concrete finish to resist the elements – and, in between, the 25m2 ceramic carpet (Baepi) reigns.  In pencil tip the print extends 2.90 m inside and 2.20 m beyond the portico.


PERFECT BORDER: Even without physical barriers, few spaces manage to create a more surprising division than this 100 m² apartment renovated by the Arquitetura Nacional studio, in Porto Alegre.  “We designed a welcoming living room and a functional kitchen and chose tauari marble and calacatta marble as coverings”.  The elegant contrast also highlights functional choices, such as the slot for a cutting board above the wooden worktop and the oblique cut in the stone section, designed to accommodate the stools.


BETWEEN THE OLD AND THE NEW: The original perobinha was one of the jewels of the apartment renovated by the São Paulo office SP Estudio.  “We didn't want to replace these tacos, but to renovate the kitchen, we thought of a finish that would make the space more up-to-date,” says architect Patricia de Palma.  The hexagonal hydraulic tiles (project by Metro architects for the Brasil Imperial factory) frame the encounter between wood and burnt concrete on the front.  The application of waterproof resin protects the materials from moisture.


COLORS IN THE SUITE: By transforming two bathrooms into one, the renovation carried out by the Tria Arquitetura office team has created an 8 m² bathroom for the resident to relax.  “Because we still opened the suite to the bedroom, it made sense to repeat the cumaru wood in both rooms.  Three shades of suitably waterproofed hydraulic tiles (Ladrilar) protect the areas: the front of the tub, the inside of the shower compartment and the area next to the sink.  In this simulated random mix lies the relaxed charm of the proposal.


FLUID PASSAGE: After opening the kitchen to the social area, architect Ana Yoshida looked for a resource that would discreetly mark the new functions of each space in the apartment in São Paulo.


SUBTLE MOVEMENT: In a compact property - only 19 m² - the integration of the environments is almost imperative.  “I wanted a unique finish, but burnt concrete doesn't always make cleaning the kitchen easier,” evaluates architect Melina Romano, from São Paulo.  It was up to the ceramic tiles (Cerâmica Atlas) applied on the 2 m² of surface subject to humidity to speed up maintenance.  To ensure flatness, they were placed first and the result appears to blend into the gray.


A STRIP FOR THE BALCONY: Bringing greenery closer, even on the fifth floor of a building in San Paolo: it is on this desire of the residents that the architect Teresa Mascaro has invented a sort of courtyard next to the large living room window.
