|Summer 2024
Andre Mellone adds artful sophistication to the concrete architecture of his sister's São Paulo house.
Brazilian designer Andre Mellone's work is as rigorous and refined as it is sumptuous and seductive. That's perhaps to be expected for someone who cut his teeth under Robert A.M. Stern, Ferguson & Shamamian, and Mark Hampton. A few years after founding the New York-based ELLE DECOR A-List design firm Studio Mellone in 2012, he took on what would be one of his most personal projects: a house for his sister and her family in their native São Paulo, built by Andrade Morettin Arquitetos.
The 20,000-square-foot home, which took three years to plan and construct, is a hulking building of poured concrete walls, floor-to-ceiling glass, and steel screens that fold for immersive views of the native vegetation. "Design has to affect your emotions; it has to relax you," Mellone says. "In this house, there are equal parts excitement and relaxation."
