Color of the sea inspires decoration of this apartment in Lisbon

Solar and laid-back. This is the design of the apartment that Brazilian architect Andrea Chicharo has just created in Monte Estoril, in Portugal. The Rio native, who in recent years has worked between Rio, Lisbon, Miami and London, has been creating interior projects that mix her Brazilian roots with the beauty of European design and typical American practicality. For this apartment, used in the summer by a Brazilian family living in London, the architect created a great mix of styles. The living room walls took on the same turquoise tone as the sea, giving the feeling that the room and the ocean are one and the same .

In the kitchen, another touch of Portuguese home , for sure. The tiles – which despite being new were created using the traditional artisanal technique of hand painting – are reminiscent of the famous panels typical of the country, although with a contemporary feel. White Corian cabinets and countertops complete the very clean environment. In the master bedroom, which is connected to the balcony, the mix of textures brings a cozy air that the space so desperately needs: wallpaper imitating straw ; leather bed and very light fabric curtains. Another peculiarity of the space is the open bathroom . Delivered like this by the construction company, it was a request from the property owners to maintain the plan. Andrea Chicharo is one of 57 professionals participating in the next edition of CASACOR Rio de Janeiro , in a beautiful mansion located in the Jardim Botânico neighborhood. For the first time, the exhibition will be hybrid. In addition to the in-person version, it will be possible to visit all environments in a digital guide with videos and 3D tours that will be available on the website. The 30th.
