Fichberg Arquitetura e Interiores - Déjà Vu. Os sócios Eloy e Felipe Fichberg combinam memórias do estilo art nouveau com a exuberância da fauna, flora e cultura brasileiras em um recanto contemplativo de 49 m². Na área do banheiro, chamam a atenção os vitrais que retratam povos indígenas e a Mata Atlântica. Já o piso de mosaico, produzido com porcelanato reutilizado, exibe figuras de frutas tropicais, como cacau, açaí, abacaxi, jabuticaba e caju. Na sala, os profissionais fazem uma ponte entre passado e presente com a mistura de móveis clássicos e exemplares de design contemporâneo. Uma reflexão sobre representatividade feminina vem à tona por meio da obra da artista Silvana Mendes. (Bia Nauiack/Divulgação)
The jury, composed of international experts, highlighted the high level of the works presented and was particularly impressed with the proposal of the Brazilian architects. The project combines memories of art nouveau style with the exuberance of Brazilian fauna, flora, and culture in a contemplative nook of 49 m². In the bathroom area, the stained glass windows depicting indigenous peoples and the Atlantic Forest draw attention. The mosaic floor, made with reused porcelain tiles, features figures of tropical fruits such as cocoa, açaí, pineapple, jabuticaba, and cashew. In the living room, the professionals bridge the past and present with a mix of classic furniture and contemporary design pieces.
