About Us
Founded in 2016 by partners Celio Diniz and Raíssa Rocha, Base Sete is a studio specializing in residential architecture projects for living, developing or investing.
Over the years, we have developed unique projects with a sensitive eye and attentive listening, which incorporate the demands and objectives of each of our clients.
For developers, we develop projects that maximize the potential of land, with unique aesthetics and intelligent strategies that stand out in the market, maximizing the financial performance of the project and bringing security to the business. Thinking beyond the obvious, we look for innovative solutions so that each project is unique, striking in the city's landscape and that values people's experience.
For those who are going to live there, we offer solutions that go beyond building a house: we design homes that inspire, provide comfort and express the personality of their residents. The quality of life of residents is always paramount.
Our commitment is to strike a balance between the economy of construction and the aesthetic quality of built environments. To achieve this, our projects are based on seven premises: rationalization of the project and consequently of the work; functionality and flexibility of spaces that allow adaptation and customization to different profiles of people; structural modulation; research into sustainable materials; suitability of the building to the local climate; integration with the surroundings; contemporary aesthetics.
From initial conception to final details, our work process is structured to ensure a transparent and collaborative experience, involving our clients at every stage. We understand that communication with customers, employees and suppliers is fundamental to the success of the project. The customer is our reason for existing, which is why our communication channels are direct and agile.
Our experience in large projects and partnerships with collaborators allow us to work on all phases of the architectural project from end to end or in isolated stages. We offer accurate mass studies, project approval with close monitoring with the competent bodies, development and detailing of the project, management of complementary projects and construction monitoring. We also offer personalized sales consultancy for the end client of the development.
Our goal is to always go beyond delivering a simple project for a property; We want to create spaces that transform lives, inspire stories and value our clients’ investment.
