The project for the third SOLO brand cafe in Copacabana, RJ, transforms two adjacent street stores into a cafe emphasizing Sustainable, Organic, and Local principles. Coordination by Antonio Pedro Coutinho Doca and Adriano Carneiro de Mendonca guided a project team including Joao Victor Assad and Cristiana Villela. Engineering and consulting contributions included Carolina Sahione for lighting and Alfatec for other consultancy, with Ecogreen Engenharia as general construction. The initial intervention involved revealing and peeling away the robust, visible structure of the existing Art Deco building to expose underlying architectural character and support an adaptive reuse design strategy.
