Casa Quitéria was created to represent the women from the Northeastern hinterland who migrated to the capital in search of new opportunities in life. The name of the space is a tribute to my mother, my ancestor would not be different if it weren't for her, a woman who raised four children alone. I owe everything to her. After she passed away, I understood how much she didn't have the opportunities for us to have the chance to choose what we do today. There are so many Quitérias in the world! I want to represent them through architecture with my own style.
