Indigenous peoples of Brazil are honored in CASACOR's KU'YA space

The word "ku'ya" comes from Tupi-Guarani and is similar to what we, in Portuguese, call shelter . Inspired by the theme Body & Home , proposed by CASACOR in 2023, the trio of architects Gabriel Ramires, José Carrari Filho and Stephanie Ribeiro decided to explore the origins of Brazil for the São Paulo exhibition.
