Jacobsen is a Brazilian architecture studio and interior design office born in Rio de Janeiro. As a premise and as project methodology, we propose the integration between the built environment and its natural context. We do not start from pre-conceived forms, but create solutions derived from the dialogue between architecture and nature, considering the active contribution of its customers’ wishes. To this end, it is important to explore the possibilities of using natural materials, spatially interpreting the concepts of transparency, lightness and fluidity to constitute a contemporary aesthetic language. With international operations the offices are located at the cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Lisbon.

Featured projects

V&H House

The house was conceived as a journey that gradually reveals itself, articulating architecture, water, and landscape at different levels.

PD House

PD House was conceived from the idea of retreat, finding its main core of spatial organization and contemplation in its central courtyard.

MRL House

In the coastal city of Paraty, on a plot of land with direct beach access, the MRL House was designed to integrate architecture, landscape, and sea.

ELB Apartment

The ELB Apartment combines the classic layout of a family apartment with the atmosphere of a house suspended above the city.

DRG House

On the outskirts of São Paulo, on a sloping lot with open views of the horizon, the DRG House was designed for three generations of the same family.

CR House

Set in Comporta, a former fishing village on the Portuguese coast, the CR House is a summer residence surrounded by pine trees and sandy dunes.
