01/20 - CASACOR Ceará - Paraíso Library - Érico Monteiro. Reading, observing art, listening to music and telling stories. On the Canhotinho farm, owned by businessman José Macêdo - owner of the property that hosts the Ceará exhibition - there was a pond called Paraíso. And it was from the pond and the rural climate that the environment was born, with a deconstructed base and focused on sustainability. With the white walls as a starting point, the idea is to transport visitors to a stable, a barn, with key elements. The ceiling and doors were restored and cleaned and the existing wooden railing, which held the house's paneling, now displays decorative objects and works of art. With minimal interventions, the library is a poetic tribute to family members and a journey for visitors. (Esdras Guimarães)
