THE IPANEMA THAI LOUNGE
An apartment like no others. Sophistication and elegance naturally merge to create one of the most beautiful and unique spaces in Rio de Janeiro. Truly progressive and minimalistic design combine Buddhist concepts with modern living, mystic decorations with superb lighting. Natural white stones, rough Italian marble, original Asian sculptures, a templar candle wall, and deep earth colors make this loft a most exclusive space for the sophisticated world traveler and stylish connoisseur.
ABOUT THE APARTMENT
Built exclusively with white materials, this loft is a sunny, vibrant beach apartment during the day, and magically becomes a most elegant urban lounge at night.
This spacious loft offers 1,300 sq feet intelligently divided into three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, an open-concept kitchen, and a wide living room to give a constant sensation of space, comfort, and luxury.
Built for high-end living, the designers did not spare on top-quality features and details along the lines of the most exclusive world resorts.
ABOUT THE LOCATION
Just as beautiful and elegant as the loft itself, so is its location.
Set in the very best and safest part of Ipanema, this near-beach-front flat is set in the absolute perfect spot for both day beach activities, and for night life.
Seconds away from the famous Ipanema Beach 9 (Ipanema Posto 9), this apartment is a few yards from the beach - no long walks necessary to be right on the sand, and amazingly convenient to take a short break from the sun, take a fast nap, a refreshing shower, or to just quickly check email.
In addition to being next to the world famous beach, this loft is just steps away from some of Rio's best restaurants and landmark night-life spots such as the Baronetti Club, the Cristal Lounge, Zaza, Botequim Informal, Liquido, Garota de Ipanema, Conversa Fiada, the elegant Garcia D'Avila street, and lively Farme de Amoedo street - home of Devassa and Club 69.

LIVING ROOM
The living room changes dramatically between day and night.
During the day it has a very cool, clean, bright and happy feel of a delux beach apartment. At night, the recessed lighting that is invisible during the day takes over the space to transform it into a most elegant cocktail ambiance resembling some of the most sophisticated spots in New York, London, and Sidney. Art and sculptures magically come to life and create a sense of peace and escape.
The living room has a large screen TV, a DVD player, a digital cable converter with 200 local and international TV and music channels, an i-Pod ready stereo, an oversized couch big enough for
5 that can also be used as a queen-size bed, a sofa-chair perfect for reading, a coffe table and low solid wodden stools.
Wall size windows allow plenty of light during the day, and an open view of trees and modern buildings.
Super bright white mirror-like floors reflect the sky from every angle.
KITCHEN
The American kictchen is extremely streamlined to allow full functionality while occuping the smallest possible space.
Built in pure Travertino Romano, the only marble used throught this loft, this kitchen is pure efficiency and elegance.
A bar allows 4 people to dine, or can be used to set up drinks for a cocktail party. The ultra-modern white stools blend with the ambiance and combine decor and comfort.
The refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher are placed inside the cabinets underneath the counter, invisible unless required.
A flat black electric top cooktop is discretely carved in the counter and looks like a small flat screen TV. There is also an American coffee maker and a blender.
All dishes and utensils are bright and orange in color to create a stark and colorful contrast.
