Inspired by Le Corbusier’s visit to Rio and the beginning of the Brazilian modernist movement in architecture and art, the Galerista’s Loft, by Diego Raposo + Arquitetos, brings together elements typical of modern architecture with a very contemporary touch. The 11-meter bookcase is a reference to brise-soleil; the kitchen ceiling alludes to the cantilevered slab; the countertops are covered in tiles; and the bathroom wall is covered in terrazzo. “We explored the connection between architecture and art, creating an environment that values the modernist legacy and invites reflection on how we move forward into the future.”
