The SER Space personifies the different ways of human existence, so that its elements invite the visitor to turn inwards. In his debut at CASACOR São Paulo , architect Alex Bonilha seeks to rescue interpersonal relationships, bringing to this end great names in Brazilian art. In partnership with designer Mahely Oliveira , the composition of the 60 m² living room was inspired by the pillars that structure harmonious living, based on affective memory as an object of interest in design.

Interiorization, reflection: the decoration reflects striking aspects of contemporaneity, illustrated in the shapes of the furniture. The entrance is made of black MDF, which runs along the entire left side of the living room, thus marking a large hall in which the low ceiling aims to bring the visitor an intimate feeling. The works of art dialogue with the concept of space to seek the various facets of the human figure, through works by Di Cavalcanti, Hugo França and Wagner Costa. The exploration of affectivity is also another striking characteristic of the space, which appears significantly in the books that come from second-hand bookshops in São Paulo. They have the function of reconnecting human beings to their essence. The hall also features names in art and design such as Iberê Camargo, Bez Batti and Jader Almeida.

The space also features natural and ecological materials and the original ceiling of the Jockey Club, where the São Paulo exhibition is held, with the aim of conveying the history of the listed building. The décor manages to balance minimalist and modern features without losing warmth and comfort. . The colors revolve around earthy tones, as seen in the entrance trellis. Some touches of strong colors complete the environment, such as the petroleum green of the carpet and the orange tone of Siron Franco's work, thus creating a vibrant essence of the space. .
