CASACOR SP reuses 70 thousand liters of water used in the Deca Cistern

With the mission of being a reference in architecture, interior design and landscaping, and offering the best user experience and the least impact on the planet, CASACOR has made a commitment to sustainability and seeks, in all its editions, to increase the efficiency of processes and reduce costs and negative impacts of the operation. All the sustainable actions of the show can be found in the 2018 Sustainability Report. With the concept A Casa Viva , the 32nd edition of CASACOR São Paulo was held in the water treatment area of the Hippodrome, in the old bioterium, in the Special Tribune 2, and in the old Paying Rooms of the Jockey Club of São Paulo. Thinking about the rational use and efficient use of water, Tenório designed the Deca Cistern for the exhibition, a space for contemplation and appreciation of the resource.

With a volume of 70 thousand liters, the project occupied the corridor that connects the building to the tribune and one of the entrances. With 560 m² of internal area and 280 m² of external space, the environment had its own route, where the visitor could see brand products applied to decoration in an unusual way. The water that ran down the rough granite in the entrance hall reached the water mirror. It is an allusion to rain and the water cycle. In this space, chairs, sofas and some lamps designed by Tenório himself made up the furniture for observing the running water. . But where did all the water go? The water used in the environment was pumped for reuse by the Jockey Club. This way, 70 thousand liters of water were no longer wasted, proving that it is possible to use the resource as a decorative element and be sustainable. .
