CASACOR

For the Perto do Mar loft, Mauricio Nóbrega Arquitetura created a timeless project, with spaces that exude the lightness and freshness of a beach house. The flooring is almost entirely made of reclaimed golden peroba wood, both on the floor and on the walls. The exception is the wet areas of the kitchen and bathroom, which have the same handmade ceramics in a pistachio tone. The decor has a hi-lo vibe with Hathi tapestries in natural fibers such as jute and wool - including hanging on the wall or used on the sofa -, as well as furniture and objects that have been sourced, ranging from basketwork to a 1950s armchair by Joaquim Tenreiro. The art selection is meticulous and brings an interesting mix. “This mix was essential to bring sophistication and personality to the loft”.
