Gabriel Fernandes - Casa Veredas Simonetto. This 120 m² house, which pays homage to country life, aims to evoke memories of rural imagery. The entrance hall is connected to the act of sewing through the installation work A Costura do Erro, by Adrianna Eu; the stove is wood-burning; and an oratory at the exit reminds us of the importance of giving thanks. A technical challenge of the project, the shelf that goes all the way up to the ceiling houses blocks modeled by women assisted by the Maria do Barro Institute in Brasília. Each brick contained in the niches represents the way its author sees the house. Behind the sofa, another gem: the panel assembled with an old ceramic floor by Francisco Brennand. (MCA Estúdio)
