(André Nazareth)

39/46 -

Roberta Nicolau - Wine Bar. The art-deco architecture of the Touring building, where this year's exhibition takes place, served as inspiration for the creation of a friendly wine bar. And the result was a dive into the past. Geometric references are everywhere. They appear on carpets, lamps and most furniture. But the decor is current and features several of the current trends: wallpaper imitating burnt cement, Chevron flooring and coral, the color of the year, dotted here and there.

41/46 -

Maritza de Orleans e Bragança - Sculpture Garden. Corten steel is a heavy and resistant material, but in the sculptures it expresses lightness in its play of shadow and light.

The landscaping alludes to the third type of tea, green. And the cachepots were inspired by the traditional sieves used to select leaves.

(André Nazareth)

Cité Architecture – Reception of Layers-004

44/46 -

45/46 -

Rodrigo Barbosa - PIERG 21. In the best style of condominiums in Miami, Ibiza and Croatia, the 520 m² space follows the concept of a beach club. As a result, the outdoor area was enhanced by becoming a leisure space and meeting point. Sustainability guided the choice of synthetic materials, from the wood and stone used on the deck to the coverings, including the ropes and fibers of the furniture.

(André Nazareth)

46/46 -

Isabella Lucena - Bahia Restaurant. The art-deco style, with its circular shapes, was the great inspiration for the creation of this edition's restaurant. It appears in the hollow arch-shaped elements that serve as partitions, in pendant lamps and in some pieces of furniture. The pillar in the center of the space was transformed into a kind of green island with two huge four-meter-high palm trees and many plants around it. The lounge also took on a different format: an L-shaped grandstand offers a more relaxed way to wait for a table and enjoy the view of the Bay.

CASACOR Rio de Janeiro 2019 brings back the glamour of old Rio and focuses on the home as a place to entertain. This year's show will take place at Praça Mauá, between the MAR and Amanhã museums, from August 20 to September 29, bringing together 63 professionals. Architects, interior designers and landscapers will be responsible for the 44 spaces, with the theme Planeta Casa . The exhibition will be held in the Touring building, an eclectic-style building with art deco elements. It was originally designed by French architect Joseph Gire and built in 1920. Together with an adjacent warehouse, CASACOR Rio de Janeiro occupies more than 6,000 square meters. The main building is home to a large number of rooms, with three floors dedicated almost exclusively to the art of hospitality. The warehouse invites you to imagine what it would be like to live in the port area, with lofts and studios measuring 70m² to 90m², as well as commercial and leisure areas.

Visibility of historical heritage

It is interesting to think about how the space has always had a certain vocation for hospitality, since it was the gateway to the city for those arriving by ship. In the future, the place will be transformed into the Mercado do Porto, a gastronomic attraction inspired by international models. “This CASACOR Rio de Janeiro has two striking characteristics: it gives visibility to a historical heritage of the city that many people don't even know about and presents a very interesting proposal of what it would be like to live in that area of Rio, which has so much potential and was recently recovered”, says Patricia Quentel, managing partner of CASACOR Rio de Janeiro .

A look at the details

Each year, Brazilian design and the curation of artworks elevate the experience at CASACOR Rio de Janeiro even further. In some spaces, strong colors activate the walls, with a highlight being the generous brushstrokes of green. There is also a respite in the combinations that calm the eye, with white, gray, natural tones and a bit of blue, without rivaling the sea just a few meters away. Be sure to notice the ceilings with artistic paintings, which advance the trend of investing in this surface - until now dominated by white. The handmade is present in woven elements, ceramics, lamps, small objects and other significant details. Wood always has a guaranteed place: it is used raw, in slats or given more elaborate finishes and shapes. A material that does not need to reaffirm its versatility, but does so with simplicity once again. CASACOR Rio de Janeiro 2019
