RESUMO

The subject of this work is the domestic architecture that arises in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, in the 1920s decade and the influences it has suffered. Among them, there is the resonance from the Arts and Crafts movement, which changed the course of the british domestic architecture in the 1890s and acquired international reputation. The influences on brazilian architecture probably came by two ways; straight from britain and also through the United States. In this country, there will be a mass production of a new kind of dwelling, the bungalow, which embodies the spirit of the british movement, in a more democratic way. This bourgeois housing culture, inherited from England, will arrive in Brazil mainly through domestic interior magazines. These domestic life-styles will settle in the suburbs that arise in São Paulo in the first decades of twentieth century, mainly in Jardim America from the Companhia City.
