Anyone who enters
Ricardo Abreu 's loft at
CASACOR São Paulo is invited to look inside themselves and explore their own desires. In a space that recalls the old French garçonnières
– apartments intended for clandestine romantic encounters
– the elements of its composition translate several languages, with the predominant focus on playful elements.
The decoration is very characteristic and provocative. It allows the public to be transported to a reality that is different from the outside, an effect provided by the combination of the rust-colored neoclassical ceiling, the white pilotis-style columns and the free-standing architectural volumes. Elements that seem to have no logical connection, but that coexist in harmony.
The lighting was designed to direct the eye only to the intended items. The indirect incidence creates a play of light and shadow that creates an atmosphere of mystery, revealing only what is intended to be revealed.
The soundtrack that accompanies the loft also helps create a unique ambiance. Light and relaxing music reflects Abreu's concern for planning a complete experience that goes beyond the drawing board, capable of provoking the imagination and instigating sensations in visitors.
The ropes, artwork and different LED panels evoke an intense eroticism that prevails throughout the loft. In contrast, the playful resources break the visitor's expectations, such as the ball pit, responsible for rescuing childish impulses and providing an interactive and sensorial experience. The DaCorda03 armchair alludes to “shibari”, a Japanese practice that seeks to achieve sexual pleasure through the aesthetics of ropes and various body tying techniques.
The 80 m² house a careful selection of designer furniture, which makes all the difference in this provocative visual expedition, as is the case with the sculptural bathtub that creates a connection between the living room and the bed.
