CASACOR Bahia already has its culinary partner set. The exhibition, which takes place from July 7 to September 6, will feature food service operated by Grupo Soho. In 2026, CASACOR Bahia returns to Casa Nossa Senhora das Mercês, the former Convent and School of Nossa Senhora das Mercês, in downtown Salvador – the same address as the previous edition.
This year's theme will be "Mind and Heart", a proposal that invites architects, designers, and visitors to reflect on the home as a space of self-care, balance, and reconnection in a world increasingly marked by the everyday use of artificial intelligence. Within this concept, gastronomy appears as an essential part of the exhibition experience, expanding the sensory dimension of the visit.

According to the director of CASACOR Bahia, Magali Santana, the group's choice speaks directly to this edition's concept. "Having Grupo Soho as the culinary partner of CASACOR Bahia 2026 is a choice that makes perfect sense when we look at this year's theme. 'Mind and Heart' invites us to think of the home as a space of healing, retreat, and reconnection with what really matters, and gastronomy plays a fundamental role in this. The table is one of the most human places there is, where care for one another is expressed in a concrete way", she says.
Magali also highlights the group's historical relationship with the city. "Soho was born in Salvador, is part of the city's history, and carries that same essence: creating experiences that nourish not only the body but also the senses. It is a partnership that celebrates what is most genuine in Bahia and that enriches the exhibition with the same depth that the theme proposes", she concludes.

At the helm of Grupo Soho, Karine Queiroz underscores the importance of the group's participation in one of the country's leading architecture, design, and lifestyle events. "I am very happy to return to CASACOR Bahia under the leadership of Magali Santana. It is a great event on the national scene, which I hold dear", she says.

For the 2026 edition, the group is preparing a special presence within the exhibition, with proposals designed especially for the CASACOR audience. "We will have a Soho sushi bar and a second operation, which is still a secret. We will also cater all the events that will take place throughout the exhibition, with menu options that reflect the culinary diversity of Grupo Soho", Karine highlights.
