CASACOR

Fallen leaves on the ground, fresh air, the smell of earth and vegetation rich in colors, aromas, textures and shapes: the 163 m² space created by architect Alessandra Caiado Cardim and landscaper and botanist Ricardo Cardim provides the sensation of entering the forest, dense and full of life. More than offering a breather, however, the project is the culmination of the manifesto begun in the duo's other space at this year's show, located at the entrance to CASACOR — a call to learn about and embrace the diversity of native Brazilian flora. The benches made of reclaimed wood are by designer Paulo Alves.
