Casa Viva: 5 gardens from CASACOR 2018 celebrate nature
The Living Home is the theme that encompasses all editions of CASACOR in 2018. The idea is to present the home as a physical, mental and spiritual refuge, with nature intimately linked to living. The professionals transformed the gardens into spaces for socializing and celebrating affection, breaking the separation caused by technology and which dictates modern life. We selected five landscaped spaces from the October exhibitions that extol integration with greenery.

CASACOR Brasilia 2018


Garden of Sensations – Fábio Camargo. To create this 400 m² work, the agronomist and landscaper sought his reference in history. More precisely, Le Jardin de Plaisir , by the Frenchman Andre Mollet, dedicated to Queen Christina of Sweden in the 17th century. He envisioned spaces to observe the charms of the landscape. A desire that remains in this millennium, with a sensorial and sustainable perspective.

CASACOR Ceara 2018


Jardim das Águas - Thiago Borges. The water mirrors – divided into three levels and created by Burle Marx – are the starting point of the garden. Visitors cross a bridge over the water as soon as they leave the ticket office and come across unique vegetation. Palm trees form a backdrop and the movement is provided by the waterfalls. Furniture has been arranged to provide visitors with a moment of contemplation of nature.

CASACOR Pernambuco 2018


Orchid Garden - Ana Lúcia Gonçalves. The aerial space is well explored and attracts visitors, who can admire the flowers and suspended terrariums. The tree trunk tables were populated with other species. The structure demarcates a welcoming area, along with the floor. It allows for various designs in the paving, using a single piece of interlocking tiles.

CASACOR Bahia 2018


Sculpture Garden - Alex Sá. Among sculptures, trees and palm trees, the public enjoys the environment and reflects on the existence of a world that increasingly needs green spaces. Among the species that inhabit the space are Pau Ferro, Pau Brasil and Oiti. Contemporary furniture completes the project.
