The
Equilíbrio Deca project redefined the relationship between
indoor and outdoor spaces by promoting
a sensorial experience of 'taking a rain shower' in this edition of
CASACOR Ribeirão Preto . The concepts of
integration and harmony were the pillars of the environment created by architect Bruno Ortega, which centralizes the softness and delicacy of water in the space. Distancing visitors from the artificiality of the contemporary world and providing them with a
deep connection with nature was Bruno's main goal; as he says: “We thought of a project that seeks to restore emotional balance and offer a refuge from the rush of modern life. And for that, all the affection that a rain shower brings.”

The project is a fully integrated 47m²
loft , which incorporates water into the interior space through a waterfall. With its rounded slatted
design ,
Portinari 's MEZZO DECOR MAX BE porcelain tile forms the back wall
— where the water flows gently, stimulating a feeling of connection in those who live in the space.

To maintain consistency between the spaces, the
bathroom follows the same line. All the selected elements harmonize with each other:
the LK Conventional Basin in Soft Anthracite, the
Slim Rectangular Built-in Sink with Double Deck in Soft Anthracite, the
Wave Countertop Spout and the
Round Mixer Tap — both the latter from the Deca You line in Dark Anthracite.

The shower that makes up the room is the
Aquamax Wall Shower with Tube , consisting of the Hand Shower for Cylindrical Shower, with the
Deca You Round Single Lever Finish also in the Dark Anthracite color.

The
Moledo stone from Castelatto used both internally and externally, and the Gales SGR Nat porcelain flooring from Portinari, in the size 120x120 cm, which is reminiscent of concrete, were the architect's choice to combine
rusticity with sophistication within
the environment . “Bruno Ortega is recognized for his ability to harmonize
textures and finishes, creating environments full of sensitivity. This was done masterfully in the Equilíbrio Deca environment, which expresses the integration between
architecture and nature, offering a new perspective on how environments can promote
well-being and emotional connection,” says Fabiana Melo, Branding, Communication and CRM Manager at Deca.
