Existe uma lacuna de registros históricos relacionada à evolução das técnicas construtivas utilizadas em São Paulo, sobretudo as envolvidas na construção de edificações de pequeno porte, que ficaram à margem das pesquisas desde o advento da construção em altura. Isto torna apropriado o levantamento de tais técnicas, bem como a investigação sobre os aspectos históricos que contribuíram para a sua modificação. O objetivo do presente estudo foi o registro sistemático das técnicas construtivas de habitações unifamiliares de alto padrão - representantes da boa técnica, por não haver a barreira de recursos, falta de planejamento e projeto -, bem como a análise dos motivos que levaram a suas transformações. Desse modo, este estudo visa a contribuir para o registro da história da construção paulistana. Para tanto, realizou-se uma ampla revisão bibliográfica, incluindo a consulta de publicações relevantes e periódicos especializados. / There is a lack of historical data related to evolution of the constructive techniques used in Sao Paulo, especially those involved in the construction of small buildings, which have become a subject of minor interest to researches since the advent of high-rise buildings. This makes a survey of the constructive techniques appropriate, as well as a research on the historical aspects that contributed to their modification. The aim of this study was to systematically record the high standard single-family residences constructive techniques - which represent good technique, for in this case there is no lack of resources, planning and design -, as well as to analyze the reasons that led to changes in such techniques. Therefore, this study seeks to contribute to the record of the construction history of Sao Paulo. To this end, we carried out an extensive literature review, including consultation of relevant publications and specialized serials.

In pieces I wanted to create a design solution inspired by traditional wooden furnitures. Furnitures, like the kitchen sofa with built in storage and a place to sleep or the lockable free-standing linen cabinet that held hand crafted treasures safe and clean inside. Furnitures that are large in size and can be hard to fit into smaller homes today but that holds a huge sentimental value to the owner and are often handed down through generations as heirlooms.   So what if I could weave in a piece of my own family history into a design solution that can fit in smaller living spaces while still be an attractive choice for larger ones?  Pieces resulted in two wooden cabinets that tell part of my family history through the repetitative, organic shapes that I have implemented into them. They are a tribute to my grandmother Aino and her three year younger sister Hanna and my way of symbolically reclaiming their right to the land, forests and lakes around their childhood home that the two sisters didn´t get to share with their siblings in the inheritance after my great grandparents.  The methods I have used in my research are surveys, workshops, in-depth interviews and my own observations. Major design decisions have been based on the input from my research process with the goal to display two full scale cabinets at Konstfack's spring exhibition in May 2023.
