The property’s layout was detailed by Casa Vogue in a report published in 2019. The main access is on the intermediate floor, which includes the living room and office, while the other floors comprise suites, a studio, kitchen, and social areas.
Office Houses Over 400 Action Figures
The office contains more than 400 action figures related to the pop culture universe, featuring characters from movies and superheroes scattered throughout the space. Among the items in the house is a figure of Harley Quinn, a DC Comics character noted in the report as one of Luque’s favorites.
In the 2019 interview, the comedian shared that he had maintained the collecting habit for about a decade and a half. “I have been a collector of heroes for about 15 years,” Luque stated, linking his interest in toys to his childhood and the ability to acquire items as an adult that he didn’t have as a child.
The reference to approximately 15 years aligns with the timeline shared by the comedian in that interview. The material that revisited the house, published by Correio, retains the information about the collection of over 400 action figures without indicating a new tally of the collection.
In the social area, large glass doors allow natural light to enter and connect the living room to the balcony. This layout creates continuity between the interior and the outdoor part of the property, offering views of the urban landscape of São Paulo.
The outdoor area houses some of the main leisure facilities of the penthouse. The space includes a pool, deck, barbecue, and fireplace, allowing for various uses depending on the temperature and the type of gathering held in the apartment.
The kitchen maintains the concept of integrated spaces, featuring custom-made furniture and stainless-steel appliances. This room connects to the balcony and dining room and is noted by Luque as one of the most frequented areas during gatherings at the residence.
The comedian told Casa Vogue that guests often congregated in the kitchen during parties, even with other areas available. This account helps explain why the space, in addition to its practical function, was part of the social area used to welcome friends and family.
The dining table was also part of this family routine. In the interview, Luque mentioned that meals with his daughters were moments of conversation without television, cell phones, or tablets, with electronic devices set aside while the family remained at the table.
Lower Level Features Suites and Studio
On the lower floor, the layout changes functions and focuses on personal areas. This level features a small living room integrated with two suites, as well as a studio used by the comedian and his daughters for drawing, creating pieces, and repurposing materials.
The space designated for artistic activities relates to Luque’s training; he revealed that he studied fine arts with a specialization in sculpture. He also mentioned that he kept boxes, packaging, and other materials that could be transformed into objects during activities with his daughters.
The organization of the home also included specific habits in the private area. Luque described the apartment as his “sanctuary” and stated that shoes remained outside this space, a practice he associated with his effort to maintain tranquility within the residence.
The open areas were also part of the routine with the children. The comedian shared that his daughters helped water the plants and place fruits for birds, attracting species such as parakeets, thrushes, and yellow-billed cardinals to the rooftop.
The vertical division allows for separation of activities without eliminating integration between spaces. The living room and office are on the entry level, while suites and the studio occupy the lower floor, and the kitchen, balcony, and leisure areas complete the property’s layout.
Luque lives in the penthouse with his wife, Jessica Correia, his stepdaughter, Laura, and his daughters, Isadora and Mel. In addition to the family areas, the property preserves spaces connected to the comedian’s personal interests, such as the studio and the office where his collection of characters is displayed.
