There are several shades that this group can encompass: brown, caramel, burgundy, sand, copper, coral, terracotta or nude. In
CASACOR 2024 , it was clear that
earthy tones were
consolidated as one of the most popular palettes among
interior architects. Earthy tones create a
feeling of comfort, lightness, and connection with nature , and also reflect the theme of this edition of
CASACOR :
"As a gift, the present" , by echoing principles such as ancestry and
sustainability . Whether through prominent brushstrokes or small details in the
furniture , this
color palette was present at the largest
architecture ,
decoration ,
design , and
landscaping exhibition in the Americas.

At
Casa Veredas Simonetto , a project by Gabriel Fernandes for
CASACOR São Paulo 2024 , earthy tones appear throughout the space as a way to
reclaim the roots of the country house . From furniture that highlights
clay in every corner of the space, from the basic furniture items to the two thousand and five hundred bricks
made by the Maria do Barro community , the palette with earthy colors pays homage to the architecture of the house in the countryside.
Gabriel Fernandes - Casa Veredas Simonetto. Despertar reminiscências do imaginário rural é o intuito desta casa de 120 m², que homenageia a vida caipira. O hall de entrada se conecta ao ato de costurar por meio da obra-instalação A Costura do Erro, de Adrianna Eu; o fogão é a lenha; e um oratório na saída lembra a importância de agradecer. Desafio técnico do projeto, a estante que viaja até o forro abriga blocos modelados por mulheres atendidas pelo Instituto Maria do Barro, de Brasília. Cada tijolo contido nos nichos representa a maneira como sua autora enxerga a casa. Atrás do sofá, mais uma joia: o painel montado com um antigo piso cerâmico de Francisco Brennand.

In this beach hotel designed by Mónica Prialé and Raúl Arróspide for
CASACOR Peru 2024 , the earthy color palette incorporates
terracotta and
beige as a way to evoke
warmth and tranquility . The harmonious combination of earthy tones acts as an invitation to relax and connect with nature.
Mónica Prialé, Raúl Arróspide - Suite Familiar y Terraza del Hotel Boutique. Neste hotel de praia, o design de interiores assinado por Mónica evoca calor e tranquilidade com sua paleta de cores terrosas, terracota e bege. Uma combinação harmoniosa que convida ao relaxamento e à conexão com a natureza. O terraço projetado por Raúl centra seu desenho na complexidade e na composição do piso: as cores e padrões com presença de plantas criam uma atmosfera que convida a se desconectar da rotina diária e mergulhar em um ambiente de beleza, luxo e serenidade.

And a beautiful example of how
earthy tones can be synonymous with comfort is the loft created by
Eduardo Baldelomar for
CASACOR Bolivia 2024. In this space, the palette appears in small details such as the bedding, and in a subtle way, through the wooden walls and floor. This is how Eduardo achieved his goal of designing a cozy home with a childhood scent.

CASACOR Bolivia 2024 space, which was developed based on a single inspiration:

What if you used earthy tones even on the facade of your home? Well, this is "Estar no Jardim", one of the
Tiny Houses at CASACOR Paraná 2024. In this space, the use of earthy tones was
synonymous with experimentation , a word chosen by the architects to conceptualize the space. The composition of colors and the use of the palette even in the textures of the space translates into an invitation to permission, reinvention and decompression in the midst of the cosmopolitan routine.

The space opens the doors to the appreciation of the five senses through contact with natural materials, rescuing origins and extolling ancestry. Furthermore, using elements such as the blue-patterned rug, the space shows that it is possible
to be bold in color combinations even when opting for a predominantly earthy palette.
