02/57 - Espaço Homem – Márcio Catão. The idea behind this space, which measures around 36m², is to combine workspace and socializing with clients and friends. That’s why it gives the impression of being in a living room, with its sobriety in gray and wood tones. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

03/57 - Chef's Kitchen – Raquel Claudino and Geórgia Suassuna. The ceiling shows signs of the original construction and the treatment it received highlights its characteristics. Thanks to the use of few colors, it was possible to mix several types of materials, such as noble stones on the walls, light wood on the furniture and floor, mirrors and acrylic in accessories. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

04/57 - Chef's Kitchen – Raquel Claudino and Geórgia Suassuna. Straight lines and modern surfaces, such as steel, predominate. But there is room for the natural tone of wood in key pieces such as the Favela armchair, by the award-winning Campana Brothers. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

05/57 - Fit Kitchen - Dauanne Arruda and Sarah Cavalcanti. The space brings a rustic feel to the countryside, combined with modernity and technology. That's why the duo places side-by-side furniture with metallic finishes illuminated with LED strips and pieces made of wood and pallets. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

06/57 - Fit Kitchen - Dauanne Arruda and Sarah Cavalcanti. The blue cobogós - original to the house - inspired the fresh and sweet color palette, which includes mint tones in the modular units. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

07/57 - Beer Lounge – Jan Furtado, Tatianne Chaves and Amanda Cruz. The metal structure defines the lounge and at the same time reveals it.

The handmade armchairs are signed by Cláudio Lopes. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

08/57 - Garden of the Mansion – Thaís Figueiredo and Patrícia Casadei. The 400m² make the space one of the largest in the exhibition.

11/57 - Movie Living – Lana Débora. The wood of the contemporary furniture, also present in the texture of the floor, warms up the composition. Metallics are present in the details and are becoming a trend. A sense of lightness and movement is created with shelves at different heights. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

12/57 - Facade – Jonas Lourenço and Giovanni Lyra. Vernacular architecture concerns ways of building using materials from the region and, often, using techniques passed down from generation to generation. With this idea in mind, as well as the desire for sustainability, the duo interspersed bricks, vertical gardens and Portuguese tiles on the walls that refer to the colonization past. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

18/57 - Living Garden – Sandra Moura and Leila Azzouz. The charred tree trunk is a true natural sculpture. Centered in the room, the element requires the rest of the space to be light to balance. The small tables with metallized legs serve as supports for books and other objects. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

19/57 - Living Garden – Sandra Moura and Leila Azzouz. With high ceilings, the walls stand out. One of them features the installation of hexagons produced in matte lacquer, wood and painted iron structure. It houses a delicate vertical garden. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

(Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

23/57 - Flamboyant Garden – Aldemar Maciel, Odair Tavares and Rodolfo Cruz. Coexistence and interaction are key words in the project, which takes advantage of the existing vegetation. Wooden benches, rope pieces and a mix of ceramic coverings create a cozy setting in neutral tones. The original floor was replaced with water-draining tiles. Finally, there are works by visual artist Chico Ferreira. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

24/57 - Confectionery – Milena Nóbrega. The panels cut out and filled with mirrors create the visual identity of the project.

All to highlight the delicacy of the colors and shapes of the sweets on display. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

25/57 - Café 1955 – Leonardo Maia and Ana Sybelle Beltrão. Recent visits to Shanghai, Hong Kong, Beijing, Dubai and Stockholm, among other world centers, were the inspiration.

27/57 - Loft do Campo – Rodolfo Albuquerque and Leonardo Couto. To make the most of every inch, small-scale furniture and various functions create tailor-made spaces.

(Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

28/57 - Loft do Campo – Rodolfo Albuquerque and Leonardo Couto. The conscious use of available resources is the basis of the narrative of this space, which begins with the reuse of a shipping container. From it, a cozy loft was created that linearly connects the living room, kitchen and suite. Fixed furniture occupies one of the walls and a single strip of lighting flows throughout all the spaces. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

29/57 - Son's Room – Débora Julinda, Andreia Julinda and Camila Soares. Sober and intimate, the space has light points that highlight the different areas of the room, for study, rest and leisure.

30/57 - Daughter's Bedroom – Carmen Raquel, Maria Raquel, Priscilla Matos and Tainá Almeida. Wood is the main feature on the flooring and entire walls.

31/57 - Daughter's Boudoir and Bathroom – Adriana Leal, Juli Morais, Katharina Ayres, Gilvane Bittencourt and Jéssica Bittencourt. The muxarabi is a type of lattice used by the Arabs as a closure, to measure lighting and ventilation. Here, it was produced in ACM and became the lace that creates points of attention on the floor and wall, with the help of lighting. Which still pays homage to the work of the lacemakers from Paraíba. The dry pink tone predominates and, with gold details, creates a glamorous boudoir or dressing room atmosphere. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

32/57 - Advertising Professional's Home Office – Carolina Hamad, Glenda Pontes and Rayssa Ferreira. The day-to-day life of a social columnist inspired the composition with an industrial appeal, accentuated by the use of black, the corten steel bookshelf and the 3D wall covering. The light wood on the floor and the glass base on the work desk ensure lightness. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

33/57 - Couple’s Room – Germana Tercio Neto and Milena Regis. The bed installed on a large wooden platform is framed by the upholstered headboard with geometric cutouts, inspired by the xique-xique cacti of the semi-arid region of Paraíba. The same lines are repeated on the divider. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

34/57 - Lavatory Garden – Ana Cristina Batista, Aucélio Monteiro Filho, Daniella Figueiredo, Maria do Socorro Fernandes and Yuri Fernandes.

36/57 - Couple's Closet – Veruska Melo, Larissa Brito and Renata Rosado. The lean 14m² did not prevent us from creating a functional space, which includes a dressing table. Mirrors and furniture covered in this material contribute to the feeling of spaciousness and enhance lighting. Another detail that doesn't go unnoticed are the metallics, which evoke the classic but are trending today. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

37/57 - Baby's Room – Teresa Queiroga and Rafaella Queiroga. The 20m² space combines delicacy and a cozy atmosphere, with solid wood furniture, wooden laminate flooring and soft tones in the fabrics. The walls are finished with elegant moldings and some areas are upholstered. The stage light escapes from the moldings and contributes to the intimacy. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

38/57 - Restaurant – Rayssa Lira. The restaurant is fully integrated with the outdoor area, thanks to generous openings protected by glass. Low lounge-style furniture creates an informal atmosphere. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

39/57 - Restaurant – Rayssa Lira. The abundant lighting allows for the use of dark colors without losing the lightness. Some seats are next to the counter where the dishes are prepared, diversifying the ways of being in the restaurant. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

40/57 - Winery – Katiana Guimarães. Inspired by vineyards, the environment begins with the sculptural wooden ceiling. From it come wine shelves and a bench made of MDF slats. The stone floor and spot lighting guarantee a basement atmosphere, ideal for wine tasting. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

41/57 - Public Restroom - Nádia Pedrosa and Lívia Rocha. The wall of blue cobogós already existed and was intentionally backlit. Its curves are redesigned by the path of the waterfall water. The use of defined geometric shapes without ornaments is expressed in the minimalist design of the other elements. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

42/57 - Intimate Living – Carmem Lúcia Lins and Silvana Chaves. The wood on the floor and the clean texture of the masonry create a simple atmosphere that puts coexistence in the foreground. For this reason, the loose furniture was arranged in a circle, with the Benjamin armchair by Sérgio Rodrigues in the center. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

43/57 - Adega da Serra – Danielle Mindêlo and Deyse Porto. The challenge was to achieve a contemporary result without giving up the rustic elements typical of a wine cellar, such as the handcrafted adobe brick on the walls. Another reference is the burgundy applied to the carpentry details, which recalls the tone of the best wines. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

44/57 - Dining Room – Annelise Lacerda, Julianne Lacerda and Zizi Lacerda. The symmetry, mirrors and use of white and gold leave no doubt as to the classic style, which is also evident in the grand crystal chandelier. The pink and metallic tones are on trend, giving a contemporary touch to the chairs and shelves that act as glass cabinets. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

45/57 - Jardim dos Lavabos – Ana Cristina Batista, Aucélio Monteiro Filho, Daniella Figueiredo, Maria do Socorro Fernandes and Yuri Fernandes. Woodcuts and furniture of national design come together to accentuate the Brazilian feel, as does the touch of vegetation. The shapes of the wall covering and the lighting that enhances the outline of the bookshelf guide the eye through the space, with the help of lighting. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

46/57 - Spa Concept – Bethania Tejo and Michelle Vianna. The spa was combined with the landscaping and the result is an open-air environment, ideal for relaxing. The minimalist language favors lighting and the open spaces were delimited by long screen-like walls and corten steel brises. Water mirrors with black pebbles, low plants and plant walls maintain the lean color palette, worked with white and earthy tones. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

47/57 - Entrance Terrace – Gianna Barretto, Daniella Barretto and Valéria Simões. Specific interventions update the open-air terrace, without losing its modernist essence. The illuminated ramp provides access to the living room, furnished with Tidelli furniture. A small, arid garden is part of the architecture, next to the water mirror. And the highlight is the curtain of lights with metal cylinders. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

48/57 - Renault Space – Dorita Santiago. The sober colors, very common in garages, gave way to the Brazilian style of green and yellow. Totally open and integrated into the landscape, the space is delimited only by a brick wall, which warms up this meeting point and allows for various functions, such as watching TV and meeting friends. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

49/57 - Borsoi Square – Larissa Vinagre. As this year's CASA COR theme is about celebration, the professional created several living spaces that resemble a house celebrating a party. Modernist architecture and its elements served as the basis, starting with the restored original floor and the new look at the pool area, respecting its shape and framed by a new wooden deck. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

52/57 - Exit Lounge – Aline Montenegro, Pedro Rossi and Flávia Giangiulio. Images and lighting, tactile elements and sounds draw attention to the importance of perceiving space through the sensations it provokes. Landmarks of local architecture were drawn on the walls and stand out. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

53/57 - Open Living (Manaíra Shopping) – Valdete Duarte. The interior designer's challenge was to include only the essentials so that the furniture would stand out as it deserved. To achieve this, black and white came into play, with occasional use of gold - in fact, the key piece is the large metallic screen, which highlights the upholstery and accessories in the ambiance. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

54/57 - Lavatory Garden – Ana Cristina Batista, Aucélio Monteiro Filho, Daniella Figueiredo, Maria do Socorro Fernandes and Yuri Fernandes.

(Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

55/57 - Reception – Alexandre Mesquita, Bruno Mangueira, Assis Neto and Thiago Dantas. The container becomes a space that welcomes visitors, with concrete walls and floors. The fixed furniture is made from pine. The entrance is demarcated by the sculptural panel, with cutouts that form leaves of local vegetation. The lighting and gardens that frame the space mark the route. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

56/57 - Entrance Lounge – Ana Flávia Menezes, Amanda Holanda and Mariana Lucena. The texture of reclaimed wood washed with a blue and white patina takes center stage in the noble areas. The color combination dictates lightness, confirmed by the casual style of the furniture - including two rocking chairs and a futon-type sofa. The geometric shape of the cobogó walls allows the light to enter in just the right amount and matches the angular shape of the lowered ceiling. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)

57/57 - Espaço Homem – Márcio Catão. The idea behind this space, which measures approximately 36m², is to combine workspace and socializing with clients and friends. That’s why it gives the impression of being in a living room, with its sobriety in gray and wood tones. The ambiance features pieces developed by the firm and works by the Paraíba-born artist José Rufino. (Alberto Medeiros e Lyssandro Silveira)
