Brazilian living in the center of [my.heart.burns], by Jeferson Branco

The woven netting is not difficult to recognize. The corner of plants near the window and the straw bar cart are not difficult to recognize either. Everything in this space by Jeferson Branco is very familiar, and not without reason: [meu.coração.queima] , the name chosen for the composition, was entirely designed based on the Brazilian popular house and takes its predominant elements from it. The space raises questions about social inequality through a high-low design , which mixes high-value brands or products with low-cost accessories and finishes. “In this space, I bring some indignation regarding the current situation in the country, such as the devaluation of our natural resources and social inequality,” highlights Jeferson Branco. In the 51 m² space, you can find all kinds of handicraft items , very common in Brazilian homes and which here gain a new meaning from the perspective of contemporary architecture. In the same sense, the cobogós , a decorative element born in Brazil and popularized in the 1950s for bringing natural lighting and ventilation into homes , are used here as a divider between the bedroom and the kitchen. In the single-wall kitchen , the highlight is the exotic stones , which make up the sink backsplash and here are highlighted by their unique beauty, originating from Bahia and Minas Gerais . Regarding the exotic nature of the stones, he explains: “[the stones] are natural beauties that do not even stay in our country, as they are mostly exported to the United States and Asia.” The bathroom is where the " Original Home " theme really comes to fruition. Terracotta tiles , which run throughout the space and create an effortless visual unity, define the bathroom area and bring a regional charm to the decor. Plants take over the shelves and the shower area, proving that plants in the bathroom are a trend that is here to stay. The details also help to further reinforce Brazilian popular culture in the decoration, which sought out the perfect elements for the décor from fond memories of the grandmother's and parents' homes . Brown crockery, a small mirror with an orange frame, a blue kitchen, a straw hammock, a clay water filter and cobogós make the space transition between times, valuing the best in ourselves.
