The way the house was inhabited reveals much about the biography of its resident. Paint marks on the studio floor, study models in a diverse range of scales and sizes, and map cabinets filled with folders documenting her research offer glimpses into Tomie’s working processes, while the plants cultivated in the garden and photographs of gatherings reveal aspects of her domestic habits.

The family maintained the tradition of Sunday lunches, initially attended by the three residents and later joined by daughters-in-law, grandchildren, and, occasionally, close friends.

Alternating between the dining room and the garden, meals took place around the large concrete surfaces designed by Ruy. These gatherings began in the morning, with cheese sticks, and continued until early evening, when the family would enjoy traditional Japanese cold noodles.

The artist enjoyed a vibrant social life. Her previous home in Mooca was already a gathering place for prominent figures from the arts and culture. As the years passed and the family expanded, the Ohtakes became more influential in the cultural scene, and their home welcomed a growing number of renowned guests.

In addition to being a space for family life and work, the House-Studio is also something of a gallery, displaying works by artists who were close to the family or admired by Tomie.

As you walk through the house, you might encounter works by Alfredo Volpi, Kimi Nii, Lydia Okumura, Nicolas Vlavianos, Shoko Suzuki, and many others.

The furniture also carried the signature of prestigious names, including Arne Jacobsen, Charlotte Perriand, Harry Bertoia, Le Corbusier, and Sérgio Rodrigues.
