In addition to being a stage for creativity, CASACOR stands out for the diversity of visions and styles presented in each environment. The professionals imprint their identity on projects that translate beauty and meaning, creating spaces full of inspirations for visitors to take home. The balance between form and function is one of the pillars of the show, ensuring that functionality is never compromised, even in the most daring proposals. And with so many ideas in this direction, here are some kitchens that were highlighted at this year's show with different visions of how to transform this very important and essential place in the home.

1. Rubia Moraes - Gourmet Space

The Gourmet Space designed by Rubia Moraes for the CASACOR Mato Grosso 2024 with the intention of offering a complete sensory experience, in an environment that respects and values natural resources. With a large functional kitchen and a privileged view of a lush outdoor garden, the space incorporates the principles of sustainability. The choice of natural and noble materials, such as certified wood and Dekton, an ultra-compact and sustainable material, complements the proposal to combine aesthetics, functionality and respect for the environment. The space is practical, with everything close at hand, without losing the charm of the exposed beams and modern design. Perfect for those who like to cook, host parties or just relax over a coffee while looking out over the garden.

Odara Machado and Víctor Calmon, from Vorá Arquitetura, have designed the Cozinha Dendê for CASACOR Bahia 2024, an environment that combines contemporaneity with the essence of Bahian cuisine. The living space, where "cooking" is the focal point highlighted by an exotic natural stone countertop, has been given a palette of earthy tones and expressions by Bahian artists. As a result, it has become an inviting environment in all its spaces, from the lounge at the entrance to the main area, where the connection with cultural roots is valued. The environment stands out for its creative design, with suspended light fixtures that add an artistic charm. Functionality is enhanced by the combination of a dining table connected to the worktop, facilitating everyday use and receptions without compromising circulation. The project celebrates the kitchen as a heart, integrating life, nature and art in a place that invites everyone to feel at home.

The Cozinha Ítalo-mineira designed by Rafaela Bruna for CASACOR Minas Gerais 2024, features a Sicilian lemon tree and a jabuticaba tree right at the entrance, as well as a sofa with an acanthus flower pattern that already hints at how Minas Gerais and Italy, especially Sicily, share similarities in art and gastronomy. With a design that mixes rustic stone and minimalist cabinets in dark tones, it is practical and full of personality. The central island with wooden details is an invitation to socialize, while the pendants and hanging plants add a warm, natural touch that complements the organic arabesques of the ceiling. It's the kind of space that perfectly combines visual charm with intelligent solutions to make everyday life easier. Here, the two cultures meet to propose a sensory experience, as a reminder of Vita Lenta, an approach to life and the world, a moment of suspension from reality.

4. Renata Santos - Kitchen μερακι

Renata Santos brings to CASACOR Piauí 2024 the Kitchen μερακι, where the Greek word Meraki means to put part of oneself into something. The meaning reflects the concept of the project, which is manifested in conviviality and good living. A setting that fulfills its primary function and explores new uses, new configurations in a confluence of art from Piauí, technology, organic shapes and textures of effect that refer to a contemporary composition with a rustic touch. The kitchen's main island is an element that brings originality to the project, with an open layout and fluid circulation. A sensory experience that gives the house a new meaning and invites us to reconnect. The use of the white stone wall in the background, contrasting with the dark panel, makes the space visually striking. And the integrated tree completes the space, bringing freshness and a bond with nature, without sacrificing the practicality of a well thought-out layout.

Bruno Colle - Lounge Gourmet. Um refúgio acolhedor que convida a celebrar momentos memoráveis ao lado de familiares e amigos. Mais do que um espaço físico, é uma filosofia de vida que valoriza o bem-estar e as conexões autênticas. A fusão de elementos aparentemente contrastantes, conhecida como "high-low", marca a assinatura autêntica do ambiente. Seu design único equilibra o tradicional com o moderno e harmoniza o sofisticado com o simples, adaptando-se a propostas que vão de casas a condomínios. O lounge se divide em estar, jantar e bancada bistrô, além de uma cozinha com ilha gourmet. (Nenad Radovanovic/CASACOR)

The Gourmet Lounge, created by Bruno Colle for CASACOR Paraná 2024, is a cozy refuge that invites you to celebrate memorable moments with family and friends, more than a physical space, it is a true philosophy of life. With an authentic signature that values well-being and genuine connections, the environment combines contrasting elements in a high-low aesthetic, balancing the traditional with the modern, and the sophisticated with the simple. This kitchen, in particular, breathes sophistication and warmth. The illuminated marble wall creates a relaxing and elegant atmosphere, while the central island stands out as the heart of the space, practical for cooking and perfect for gathering people around. With comfortable stools and a layout designed down to the smallest detail, the room invites you to live and celebrate unforgettable moments. [april-whatsapp][/abril-whatsapp]
