CASACOR São Paulo 2019. Casa Grão by Starbucks at Home - Très Arquitetura. The architects' goal was to create a residence inspired by the grain, not only of coffee but also by the idea of germination and life. They created the space in the shape of a glass box with a living room, dining room, a small kitchen, terrace and a master suite. A stone wall contrasts with the transparency of the glass and adds texture to the space.

“It’s wood, it’s stone, it’s the end of the road,” as Tom Jobim’s song goes. Stone is one of the most primitive and elementary elements of construction and architecture. The great monuments of antiquity that have survived to this day are made of stone, such as the Egyptian and pre-Columbian pyramids or Greek temples. There is an ancestral sense of solidity and permanence when incorporating these materials into decoration. Whether in the form of walls, coverings or even as artistic pieces, the use of stone in decoration always enriches spaces.
