A recent video highlights the modernist architecture of the Olivo Gomes Residence, which will serve as the new headquarters for the Museum of the Brazilian House (MCB) in São José dos Campos. Constructed in the 1950s, this historic building is currently being adapted to accommodate the museum's needs, with the renovations expected to be completed within 70 days. This development follows the museum's relocation, as it had been without a permanent home since April 2023, after leaving its previous site in western São Paulo.

The MCB's move is significant as it marks an important step in at the cultural landscape of São José dos Campos, located within the City Park in the city's northern zone. The renovations aim to create a space that not only preserves the historical essence of the Olivo Gomes Residence but also provides a modern facility for exhibitions and cultural activities. The museum has a rich history of contributing to Brazil's cultural discourse, and its return is anticipated to invigorate local interest in Brazilian architecture and design.

The new headquarters comes at a time when the MCB seeks to re-establish its presence in the community after facing challenges in its previous location, which was marred by an incident involving a fire in 2024 that damaged the façade of the old house. With renewed commitment from the government and responsible institutions, the museum aims to foster cultural engagement and showcase Brazilian heritage through its array of programs, exhibitions, and educational initiatives as they prepare to launch in their new home soon.
