Sofa Box, by Jader Almeida, present in the “Contemplation" Art Room signed by Mario Costa Santos- CASACOR Rio 2021 / (André Nazareth)
The perfect environment for entertaining and relaxing, the living room may seem to have lost its main function during the pandemic, but that's not what these 12 CASACOR Rio projects say. In them, the living room gains new functions and appears alongside home offices , balconies and even bedrooms. All of this as part of a living idea that is not only beautiful, but also practical and functional .

Mario Costa Santos – “Contemplation” Art Room. Inspired by the Slow Living movement, which values time and appreciation for details, this space has a light, comfortable décor designed to awaken sensations. The furniture, chairs by Sérgio Rodrigues and contemporary pieces by Jader Almeida contrast with the original details of the house’s eclectic architecture. The works of art bring an interesting mix of styles, ranging from the baroque statues that belong to the residence’s collection to the folk art of Veio, as well as photographs by Miguel Rio Branco and installations by Hilal Sami Hilal. The curatorship is by Heloisa Amaral Peixoto.

Victor Niskier – #Pergolando. The need to create separate flows for entering and leaving the residence imposed new challenges for the reception: the solution was to create a fluid architecture with two pergolas that communicate visually, but not physically. On the way out, a seating area in the middle of the bamboo grove serves as a last space for contemplation and also pays homage to the former owners of the house, displaying part of the love letters exchanged by the couple.

Cynthia Berlandez Pedrosa and Raphael Pedrosa Zay – Atrium. Designed as an intimate balcony where guests could enjoy the beautiful view of the residence’s extensive gardens, the former porte-cochère of the house was given a casual chic ambiance with tropical touches and the use of natural materials such as fibers and straw. White arches frame the surrounding nature.

Andréa Chicharo Arquitetura – Library. Much of the structure is original to the space: moldings, stained glass windows, doors and flooring were already in the 21st century house, full of 19th century architectural details. The bookshelf, however, was modernized with copper niches and the same color as the walls. The contrast also appears in the contemporary furniture designed by big names in national design.

Adriana Esteves – The Refuge. The colorful and laid-back space reflects new living trends in the post-pandemic world in which environments need to accommodate multiple functionalities, even in reduced square footage. The place dedicated to rest and disconnection from the outside world celebrates physical and mental health and prioritizes comfort with contemporary and cozy furniture. Memories of the architect herself add a more affectionate touch to the decor.

UP3 Arquitetura – Casa UP. Michelle Wilkinson, Thiago Morsh and Cadé Marino created a contemporary construction with a metal structure made exclusively for the show in a fast, sustainable way and without generating almost any waste. The house is camouflaged in the garden and, inside, it combines Scandinavian and Rio de Janeiro styles. Stone, clay, wood and cotton are used in the decoration of the open and multifunctional spaces, creating an environment that proposes a reconnection with nature, which is further reinforced by the palette of earthy tones and forest green.

Luiz Fernando Grabowsky – Piano Room. The furniture takes a tour through different eras with a mix of the best produced in national design: there is a large D. José chest of drawers from the 19th century, original to the house, contemporary furniture, such as the Icon bookcase by Jader Almeida, and reissues of pieces from modernist Jorge Zalszupin. All this in an environment dedicated to music, thanks to the piano residing there (since always), and the seating.

Gisele Taranto Arquitetura – Living Mutante. The space, which is dedicated to the meeting of architecture with art and thought, is a response to the need for flexible and easily modifiable spaces, something that has been intensified during this period of prolonged stay at home. Classic designer furniture designed by Sérgio Rodrigues, Lina Bo Bardi and Oscar Niemeyer is accompanied by works of art in a gallery-like environment.

Tatiana Lopes and Tatiana Pessoa Mendes – Intimate Guest Room. The living room takes on a new look in times of multifunctional spaces: it is a space that can easily adapt to accommodate a guest, but also has a place for a home office and even a corner dedicated to home fitness, with a spinning bike and a tablet for viewing online classes. All this in just 20 m² decorated with lots of colors and relaxation, as well as a planned joinery that takes advantage of the high ceilings.

Diego Raposo and Manuela Simas – Secret Garden. This ephemeral installation presents a bold and easily replicable proposal: two inflatable plastic igloos serve as portable refuges designed to provide a greater connection with nature, creating a space dedicated to contemplation. Built sustainably, without causing any interference in its surroundings, the space has contemporary decor with few pieces of furniture that emphasize integration with the external garden.

Paola Ribeiro – Couple’s Room. In the dormitory that housed the former owner of the house for years, the inspiration is feminine – all the works of art are by women. There is a small work space, many shelves that make use of the original cabinets and a privileged view of the gardens. The contemporary furniture (partly designed by Paola in partnership with Maria Cândida Machado) contrasts with the rich architectural details of the residence and helps to create a casual chic style.

Jean de Just – Winter Garden. Designed for family gatherings, but also for everyday needs, the space combines living, dining and office and highlights the use of tiles creating geometric designs – a contemporary reference to the 18th century tiles that are present in several rooms of the house. residence. Everything is very colorful and surrounded by the greenery of the plants that appear in pots and in the vertical garden. The furniture is contemporary to bring even more contrast with the architecture of the house.
