He won two world championships in his career with his legendary Toyota car in 1990 and 1992 and achieved another four runner-up finishes and five third places. He is also the son of Carlos Sainz J.R., a Formula 1 driver currently competing for Ferrari.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, we will talk about <strong>Carlos Sainz&#8217;s house<\/strong>: an impressive one, similar to that of Scottie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lamansiondelasideas.com\/en\/home-crafts\/nicole-scherzinger-mansion-in-los-angeles\/\"><strong>mansion<\/strong><\/a> similar to Scottie Pippen&#8217;s in which concrete plays a very prominent role. Read on if you want to know what this <strong>gigantic home<\/strong> has to offer.<\/p>\n<h2>The style of Carlos Sainz&#8217;s mansion<\/h2>\n<p>Paulista brutalism is a <strong>modern art movement that took place between 1953 and 1973 <\/strong>in the city of Sao Paulo (Brazil). The architecture proposed by this current is marked by the <strong>emphasis on the construction technique, the valuation of the structure, and by the preponderance of concrete<\/strong>. More than an aesthetic search, its defining characteristics arise from a political project for the South American country, betting on industrialization to end underdevelopment. <strong>This is the style of Sainz&#8217;s house<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>Before entering the house, the access door attracts a lot of attention: <strong>a giant door made of glass and completely black<\/strong> that goes in line with the exterior design. In addition, <strong>we found a pond right next to it that generates<\/strong> very interesting and beautiful <strong>reflections<\/strong> both on the roof and on the door. These details are quite creative, so they <strong>break a bit with the Paulista aesthetics<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Inside the ex-pilot&#8217;s house<\/h2>\n<p>The most striking thing about Carlos Sainz&#8217;s house as soon as you enter is the height of the ceiling, or perhaps the absence of traditional doors. <strong>All the entries that give access to the house&#8217;s different rooms are sliding<\/strong>. On the other hand, the ceilings are quite well worked and decorated in such a way that they <strong>function as a kind of large skylight<\/strong>: an opening that provides light and ventilation in equal parts. These are the most remarkable rooms of the mansion:<\/p>\n<h3>Library<\/h3>\n<p>It is a <strong>room set up exclusively for reading<\/strong>, with a bookshelf full of books and comfortable cushioned sofas. The former Spanish rally driver spends hours relaxing, leafing through an entertaining novel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h3>Kitchen room<\/h3>\n<p>It is considerably large, so much so that it looks like a professional kitchen, not only because of its size but also because of its elements. <strong>It is divided between the work area, a large island where the fires are located, and a dining room<\/strong>. A glass door separates both parts of the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h3>Living room<\/h3>\n<p>It is a <strong>rather simple and practical<\/strong> room <strong>, without too many decorative elements<\/strong>. Here, the former pilot sat down to talk about his life and experiences with Bert\u00edn Osborne on his program &#8220;En tu casa o en la m\u00eda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>It is a <strong>room with a lot of light, both from the large windows that surround it and from the presence of lamps<\/strong>, which provide a very pleasant illumination when the sun goes down. A white sofa presides over the living room and a large table where we can find <strong>photographs of the ex-racer from when he competed<\/strong>, among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Almost everyone knows Carlos Sainz, as he is one of the most successful rally drivers.
