Bruno Borges - BSB Arquitetura - Banho da Saudade. Quem você é quando ninguém está olhando? O arquiteto Bruno Borges faz essa provocação com este banheiro unissex de 33 m², tratado como uma experiência de reconhecimento. Na entrada, as obras de Bruno Passos e Caio Cruz tecem um passeio pela psique humana. Na antessala, o sofá Bacio, de Karol Suguikawa, de veludo macio, e o tapete Profundezas, desenhado pelo profissional, dão a medida do acolhimento. Uma passagem listrada leva às cabines e, ao fundo, à bancada de inox com os lavatórios. Um vitral ladeia o banco esculpido em quartzito tempest green com aspecto vitrificado, de onde parece emergir a escultura Levitação, de Leopoldo Martins. (Denilson Machado, do MCA Estúdio/CASACOR)
The draped sofas appear in different projects at CASACOR São Paulo 2026 and point to a new direction in contemporary design: the appreciation of softer, more voluminous and sensorial shapes. Marked by folds and ripples in the upholstery, these pieces transform the sofa into an element of strong visual presence in spaces and reinforce the search for more inviting projects.
Draped sofas stand out for their carefully crafted folds in the upholstery, creating surfaces marked by movement and visual depth. The technique softens the traditional geometry of upholstered furniture and introduces a more organic appearance, capable of bringing the furniture closer to a sculptural language.

Beyond the aesthetic impact, the draping contributes to an expanded perception of comfort. The curves and ripples make the piece visually more welcoming and help to balance materials with a rigid appearance, such as stone, metal and wood.
In the project signed by Bruno Borges, the draped upholstery takes part in building an atmosphere centered on welcoming and introspection. The project proposes a reflection on identity and personal recognition through art, sensory paths and materials that stimulate different perceptions.

In the antechamber, the Bacio draped sofa, created by Karol Suguikawa and upholstered in velvet, reinforces the sense of comfort that guides the experience. Just like the rug, the piece helps create a welcoming pause before the main area of the project, balancing the presence of materials such as stainless steel, quartzite and glass.
Signed by Josemar Costa and André Azevedo, the project presents a contemporary interpretation of Brazilian identity through art, design and Latin American references. In an almost fully integrated floor plan, striking colors and a carefully curated selection of furniture build a space full of personality.

In this context, the draped sofa emerges as an element that softens the visual intensity of the composition. Its enveloping shapes dialogue with the warm tones present in the project and reinforce the idea of a home designed to welcome, collect memories and bring together different cultural influences.
Inspired by the elegance of Milan in the 1960s and 1970s, the Loft Milanese proposes a contemporary reading of luxury. Continuous coverings, furniture with refined design and carefully chosen fabrics help create a sophisticated atmosphere without excesses.

In this context, the generous curves of the draped sofa introduce a sense of visual comfort that contrasts with the precision of the finishes. At the same time, the piece helps make the integrated spaces more welcoming and fluid.
At CASACOR São Paulo 2026, José Navarro uses architecture as a tool for reflection on consumption and permanence. The project brings together works of art, objects and elements that question contemporary practices and value more conscious and lasting choices.

In this setting, the ruched sofa goes beyond practical function. Its presence contributes to an atmosphere that favors permanence over obsolescence. Integrated with the millwork that embraces the project and with the curation of pieces, the furniture takes part in a composition marked by timelessness.
