Isabela Vecci - Ticket Office 356. Two interesting points stand out in the ticket office project. One of them is the work of artist Preto Mateus applied to the posters on the large service desk and on one of the walls. Another is the care taken to outline, with videos and photos, a timeline that tells the story of how the construction and the retrofit project of Space 356 came about.

Life Projects - Marble Kitchen. Stone, wood, glass, exposed cement synthesize the environment, where the dish, the center of the gastronomic experience, guides the project. This is the case with the element on the ceiling in circles with several functions. The space is guided by an external curve with the brand's identity and an internal curve, in joinery, with illuminated niches. The highlight is the mobile island with cooking and refrigeration station, which allows for various layouts.

Cris Capanema - Hogar Concept. Although it is a store, the idea is for visitors to feel at home. Nothing is rigid, fluidity reigns in both the furniture and the architecture, creating a poetic atmosphere, which chooses warm tones such as brown to offer comfort. With a glass ceiling and walls – only the facade is blind – the intention is to make people turn inside. Amidst ornaments and many works of art, charm reigns.

Andrea Pinto Coelho - Maison Deboá Perfumery. A light and feminine environment that balances classic and contemporary in a very harmonious way.

From the mix of textures to the choice of materials and pieces for each sector of the store, everything enchants with good taste, functionality and beauty.

Tulio Henrique - Estúdio dos Reflexos. With a predominance of black and white tones, highlighting the minimalist character, a studio where straight and organic lines converge, tracing a unique path. Each piece of furniture, each corner is an invitation to introspection, to a pause in the chaos of the outside, as if offering an essential silence. The idea is to create a place where the act of living happens in a simple way, without giving up sophistication, timelessness and belonging.
(Estúdio NY18)
08/62 -
Maycon Altera - Opulent House. Past, present and future do not define whether a house is modern. It will always be modern if it can be timeless, without being tied to trends. This project chooses stone and wood as basic elements for the living room, precisely because they present a beauty that has no expiration date. The furniture follows the same line of reasoning, adding care, harmony and a dose of impact, providing a unique personality.

Evandro Melato and Pabrício (Studio 126) - Balnear Deca. A proposal that combines the historical richness of Minas Gerais with the modernity and innovation of the present.

In this case, the “gold” is the Deca products, displayed in the environment like true jewels that exalt the design of the future and also recall the shared baths of ancient civilizations.

Amanda Silva - Carneiro School. The idea behind the project, created for the Carneiro art school, is to highlight art as the main character, in addition to stimulating each person's creative capacity. The cement tone, the wooden details and the specific landscaping stand out to create a clean and, at the same time, inspiring environment, which uses straight and curved lines to create a welcoming atmosphere. The lighting was also designed to make classes pleasant and stimulating.

Alex Rousset and Ana Vaz - Espaço Avosidade. The project, linked to the NGO AVOSIDADE, is built on the theme of old age and aims to reflect on “time”.

Andrea Buratto - Max Barbearia. The project moves away from the concept of a cool barbershop to present a space that is both striking and sophisticated. Combining innovation and luxury, the noir-style space has a masculine personality and uses elegance such as the wine color, present occasionally, and the French-style rug. The lighting effect gives the idea of a tunnel and plays with the imagination of an effective aesthetic transformation of the client.
(Jomar Bragança)

(Jomar Bragança)
28/62 -
Maikyanne Sodré - Living Gallery. Right at the entrance, the living garden is like an introduction to the atmosphere of the space, which embraces the concept of the ancestral constructions using earthy tones, natural materials and diverse textures.

Letícia Januzzi - Hygge Living. Coziness and coziness, two words that best describe the space that integrates a living room with a fireplace and a dining area for a few people, reinforcing the more intimate feel.

The details include the soft palette, the play of textures and the exclusive art by Felipe Lanzas from Rio de Janeiro.

(Estúdio NY18)
33/62 -
Daniela Tavares - A living toy library. Quality time to create bonds and lasting memories is what guides this project that encourages children to explore. A spacious space, with neutral colors inside to avoid overstimulation, and more colorful outside. The carpentry is its strong point. As playful as the furniture designed by the architect, the watercolor painting on the wall brings a bit of nature into the interior.
(Daniel Mansur)
34/62 -
Carla Cruz and Phil Pinheiro - Sala Studio. An environment designed to celebrate and showcase the firm's signature pieces, which reflect the essence of everything they create.

35/62 -
Flavia Freitas, Letícia Longuinho (Estúdio Exito) - Game Bar. The idea is intimate, with a pool and poker table on a wine-colored velvet background and a foosball table.

(Henrique Queiroga)

(Henrique Queiroga)
40/62 -
Verônica Ferreira - Estúdio Coral. With colors that generate memories and an architecture that references Minas Gerais baroque, the project is an invitation to feel at home. In the entrance hall, vibrant colors and stimuli precede the comfort of the living room. In it, the warm color on the ceiling is like a hug, and the textures are also welcoming. In the office, few stimuli and a shade of blue that brings calm. Overall, each color and texture conveys a sensation and a memory.
(Daniel Mansur)
41/62 -
Isabella Sefisa - Refúgio Gêneses. Designed as a loft with a bedroom, living room, bathroom, wine cellar and balcony, this project seeks to reflect on the essence of each person.

Highlights include natural elements, such as stone and wood, which also convey a sense of welcome and calm, worthy of a true refuge.
(Estúdio NY18)
42/62 -
Rafaela Bruna - Italian-Minas Gerais cuisine. Right at the entrance, a Sicilian lemon tree and a jabuticaba tree, as well as the sofa with an acanthus flower pattern, already give clues as to how Minas Gerais and Italy, especially Sicily, have similarities in art and gastronomy. Here, the two cultures come together to offer a sensorial experience, as a reminder of Vita Lenta, a celebration of life and the world, a moment of suspension of reality.
(Jomar Bragança)
43/62 -
Helena Lino - Jardim Ítalo-Mineiro. A garden that combines the climate of Sicily with plants typical of Minas Gerais backyards.

(Jomar Bragança)
44/62 -
Rafaele Drumond and Fernanda Ferreira - Em Cena - Estúdio Comvida. Disconnect. This is the concept of this environment that encourages conviviality and gives up excess technology in a fluid and delicate space, full of items that sharpen affective memory. It goes from the deconstructed sofa to the generous rug, from the organic-shaped table to the chest with radiola and also to the light and continuous bookshelf that displays and illustrates the residents' memorable moments.
(Breno Mageste)
45/62 -
Luisa Mano - The Dressing Room. The print on the floor and walls (co-created by the architect and Pedro Lázaro) dresses up the space, designed for someone who makes their own clothes at home.

The comfort of being encourages creation, interaction and contemplation.
(Estúdio NY18)
46/62 -
Yuri Hallen, Caroline Di Carlo - Mundo Adentro Suite. A complete suite for those who love to travel and gather special memories from each destination they visit.

The idea was to bring together in one place all the desires and needs of a couple who feel at home anywhere in the world.
(Estúdio NY18)
47/62 -
Francisco Morais (Framo Arquitetura) - The Box. The most striking feature is the mashrabiya that envelops the space and complements a burnt cement textured wall.

(Estúdio NY18)
48/62 -
Paulo Augusto and Sarah Floresta - Balsa Arquitetura - Glass Bar. Relaxed to a certain extent, the idea is a comfortable place with splashes of color on the furniture and the presence of glass, which guides the project.

Textures, natural materials and a wine cellar allow visitors to explore the universe of wines.
(Henrique Queiroga)

Beatris Lodi and Luciana Motta - Terrace 356. With straight lines and natural tones, the walls and deck paint the surroundings of this space that favors the use of natural materials.

Wood and terracotta bricks combine with the contemporary style of elegant, comfortable and interactive furniture. Sculptural light fixtures and a charming awning complement the design.
(Jomar Bragança)
50/62 -
Cynthia Silva - Origin Minas. Contemporary with rustic references, the construction has a masonry appearance, although it is still framed in steel. The built-in colonial roof, unlike the conventional one, the natural stone mosaic on the floor, the wood in the ceiling and the interior finish reinforce this idea. Highlights include the central island, which offers sensory experiences based on the careful selection of Minas Gerais products displayed in the store.
(Estúdio NY 18)
51/62 -
Angelo Coelho, Cristina Morethson, Angelo Coelho Filho and Andre Morethson - Gourmet Abtah.

A wine cellar and central counter complete the intimate atmosphere.
(Gustavo Xavier)
52/62 -
Adriana Gouveia - Petit Resort. A minimalist, elegant and cozy space that escapes the commonplace. It is intimate and, at the same time, opens up to the landscape, highlighting wood as a versatile element, present in the pergola slats, in the sunshades and also in the floor. Innovation and technology come together with a palette of neutral tones concentrated in the furniture designed by Arthur Casas. Even in Vietnamese vases, the texture is in the tone of the wood.
(Jomar Bragança)
53/62 -
Junior Piacesi - Elevate yourself. The fusion between modernity and nature creates a unique and captivating atmosphere in the space. With a panoramic view, the bar is the focal point, with a modern architectural structure and elegant curves. There is also a space dedicated to contemplation and relaxation, with benches and fireplaces. The lighting is scenic, planned to highlight contours and details, and the presence of vegetation adds freshness and life to the project.
(Jomar Bragança)
54/62 -
Katiene Rosa - Alto do Olival. The atmosphere is clean, elegant and relaxed. Painted metal planters highlight the refinement of the olive tree, a tree full of tradition and meaning, after all it is one of the oldest fruit species cultivated by man. For the composition of the scene, 12 in total were chosen, of varying sizes. Texas grass appears behind the glass that separates the space, adding a green that is pure lightness.
(Jomar Bragança)
55/62 -
Bloc Arquitetura Imobiliária - THE BLOCK. The installation transforms cement scaffolding into a sensorial building with four tall and imposing towers, visible from different angles. Moving between them reveals a play of light and shadow, where intertwined tubes create ethereal or opaque volumes depending on the perspective. Using a peripheral and forgotten element, the work reveals an unusual and often ignored beauty.
(Jomar Bragança)
56/62 -
Ana Luiza Araujo and Bruna Araujo (A+B Arquitetura) - Living Bar. In this environment, the simplicity of form meets the complexity of nature, in a project that explores the strength of the materials it uses.

Highlights include sculptural lighting pieces and generous windows that allow natural light to enter.
(Jomar Bragança)
57/62 -
Life Projects - O Chef e O Cabra Restaurant. Stone, wood, glass and exposed cement synthesize the environment where the dish, the center of the gastronomic experience, guides the project. This is the case with elements suspended from the ceiling, circles with various functions. The space is guided by an external curve that brings the brand's identity and an internal curve, made of carpentry, with illuminated niches. The highlight is the mobile island with cooking and refrigeration station, which allows for various layouts.
(Estúdio NY18)
58/62 -
Nana Guimarães - Jardim dos Contrastes. In contrast to the fluidity of the restaurant's design, the garden features vibrant red-toned plants. The landscaping has an organic design and a somewhat Egyptian feel, combining the aridity of very light-colored pebbles in contrast with the bright colors of the dracaena cordilines. The same organic design can be found in the flowerbeds arranged next to the bar. In the outdoor area, the presence of greenery is marked by an olive tree.
(Jomar Bragança)
59/62 -
Paula Azevedo - Extremo Park Indoor. As this is a space focused on entertainment, the architect's idea was to offer a fun, welcoming and safe place. Its architecture uses a neutral color palette, materials such as exposed brick and polished cement and all-black metalwork, in addition to well-designed landscaping. The neutral settings provide flexibility in organizing parties and the flows are well defined. There are numerous attractions, ranging from a trampoline park, climbing wall, stage sets, a nightclub, party rooms, a fully equipped main kitchen, a space for a velotrol, mini bowling, a space for workshops and much more.
(Daniel Mansur)
60/62 -
Gislene Lopes - Bathroom and Dressing Room. Far from conventions that choose light colors for relaxation areas, the project navigates through dark tones, which are no less peaceful for that. Divided into connected spaces, it features cascading water at the entrance, a cozy bathroom followed by the shower area and a comfortable dressing room. The composition features a strong presence of stone, landscaping and art in connection with well-being.
(Jomar Bragança)
61/62 -
Mayara Cancela - Gourmet: Between Curves and Encounters. Designed as a perfect setting for good conversations, the project chooses curved volumes to promote a welcoming atmosphere and textures that emphasize touch. Every detail was designed to enrich the sensory experience. With light carpentry work, the open-concept kitchen opens up to the local vegetation. Inside, the greenery allows for intimate contact with nature, as do the clay ceramics.
(Estúdio NY18)
62/62 -
Rodrigo Moura and Daniela Jabour - Piano Room. The minimalist approach translates into clean lines that reinforce the efficiency of the design. Without excess, each architectural element is carefully considered to create an atmosphere that invites contemplation and lingering. The elegance of the space is enhanced by the subtle integration of natural materials, such as wood and stone, adding soft textures that provide a pleasant tactile sensation.
(Estúdio NY18)
New address
Espaço 356 was chosen due to the recent retrofit process in the project, allowing the building to be completely redesigned based on the work of architects Alexandre Nagazawa and Isabela Vecci , light designerSônia Mendes , and landscaper Felipe Fontes . The goal is to offer a new concept of entertainment in the city, known as Living Center , bringing together gastronomy, fashion, art, sports and well-being in one place.
(Estúdio NY18/CASACOR)
With this initiative, CASACOR Minas Gerais continues its tradition of revealing spaces and buildings to the public, presenting new formats for their use and interaction with the city. Since its creation, CASACOR Minas has been responsible for revealing to the public and drawing attention to the importance of a series of buildings that are part of the urban landscape, such as the headquarters of the Minas Gerais Public Archives, the Casa do Conde de Santa Marinha, the Casarão da Rede Ferroviária Federal, the Palácio das Mangabeiras, the Casa Ferolla , as well as several other commercial and residential properties. “The city is a living, breathing mechanism that has been undergoing a series of transformations. By choosing an address that has just undergone a retrofit process, reintegrating itself into the urban landscape and acquiring new uses, we are reflecting on the importance and commitment of professionals in architecture, interior design and landscaping in the process of rebuilding cities,” highlights Eduardo Faleiro , director of CASACOR Minas.
(Gustavo Xavier/CASACOR)
Faleiro also acknowledges that the theme chosen for the year was challenging for the cast, who focused on presenting solutions in tune with the impacts of current and future times. Director Juliana Grillo highlights that the theme helped reinforce the importance of sustainable practices in the market, highlighting care for the environment and the contribution to the quality of life of people and the planet. “By occupying an existing building, which has just undergone a requalification process within a model that restores the old structure and preserves the original architecture, we are contributing to presenting new formats for using not only the areas, but also part of the existing buildings in large cities, reducing the generation of waste”, highlights the director.
2024 Edition
(Jomar Bragança/CASACOR)
With a very heterogeneous cast, which brings together veterans, professionals established in the market and newcomers, CASACOR Minas 2024 surprises with its implementation and the diversity of views on a theme that is urgent and universal, raising in the public the need to rethink choices and old habits. Because of this, this edition has some specificities in relation to the others. The first of these is that some areas will be open to the public, meaning they will be accessible without paying for tickets. Another new feature is that some projects, mainly commercial ones, will continue to operate after the show is over.
(Estúdio NY18/CASACOR)
The areas open to the public include: Ticket Office, Café Mayor, Restaurant and Extremo Park Indoor. Those that will be integrated into Espaço 356 in the future include: Barber Shop, Perfumery, among others that may be announced throughout the show. Another new feature this year is the return of the Mostra 100% Minas, created to present a selection of the state's current contemporary production.
Gastronomy
Gastronomy plays a significant role in the program. This year, visitors will have access to a variety of options, designed to cater to a wide range of audiences. Starting with the confectionery, designed by the Pega Projeto team (Gabriela Brasil, Marlon Júnior and Pedro Melo), strategically located next to the ticket office, which will allow visitors to enjoy the creations of the Célia Soutto Mayor buffet , one of the oldest in the city.
The Cabernet Butiquim team will be in charge of Bar de Vidro , by Paulo Campos and Sarah Floresta, from Balsa Arquitetura , with a very cosmopolitan feel, which extends both to the style of the environment and the menu. The coffee break will be at Elisa Café , designed by Roziane Faleiro . The bar, one of the most popular spaces at the show, which this year was designed by Junior Piacesi , will once again be taken over by the Jangalito team. And a success that is already becoming a trademark of CASACOR Minas is the Restaurante O Chef e o Cabra , by Onildo Rocha from Paraíba, who has been voted one of the best chefs in the country several times. In this edition, the restaurant has a project signed by Life Projects, by José Lourenço and Marina Figueiredo , who is also in charge of Cozinha Marble , an environment in collaboration with Camila Vilela . The space will host an intense program of activities that includes cooking classes throughout the entire show.
Art exhibitions

In addition to the massive presence in the spaces, with works carefully selected from galleries and private collections, the visual arts deserve a special place in the program. One of the spaces, the Art Gallery , designed by architect and designer Juliana Vasconcellos , will have a busy schedule, presenting the work of important artists during the exhibition season. There are individual and collective exhibitions, some of which feature part of the collection of gallery owners who stand out in the Belo Horizonte scene, making up an exquisite selection that includes different formats and supports. This strategy aims to bring the visiting public closer to important names in the art produced in the capital of Minas Gerais , thus creating greater intimacy with artists, designers and galleries that, in this way, approach an exponential number of people who are already interested in art and also those who will have the opportunity, for the first time, to experience this closer contact.
