The night of Sunday (09) was marked by a lot of emotion and celebration at the closing of the
CASACOR Santa Catarina | Florianópolis 2025. In an emotional speech, the director
Francis Bernardo highlighted that the exhibition "goes far beyond architecture, design, or landscaping," emphasizing the human and inspiring role of the event. "We talk about people, about encounters, about the transforming power of beauty and creativity, when they come together to present something relevant to an audience that has high expectations," she stated.
Under the theme "
Sowing Dreams", the 2025 edition celebrated the power of encounters and exchanges that generate lasting fruits. Francis emphasized that each project presented a unique story, composing a mosaic of ideas that inspired thousands of visitors. "Each gaze, each conversation, each idea exchanged here is a seed planted for the future. May these seeds blossom into new ways of living, being, and feeling," she said.
The director made a point to thank the professionals, partners, and sponsors who made the event possible. "It is you who sustain this spectacle and make everything work, even when no one sees," she emphasized, reinforcing the collective role in the construction of the exhibition.
Wrapping up the cycle of 2025, Francis reminded everyone that the legacy of CASACOR remains alive. "We close the physical doors, but what we experienced here continues within us, in our homes, in our dreams, and in our city. Because beauty, when shared, never ends."
With enthusiasm, she also previewed the
premises of the 2026 edition, which will mark the
30 years of CASACOR in Santa Catarina and the 10 years of her management in front of the franchise. The new location, still confidential, will be on the Island, on a busy avenue, with parking area and a commercial circuit featuring outdoor gastronomy— a space designed to reflect the national theme "
Mind and Heart", which proposes to unite reason and sensitivity in contemporary living.
The night ended with a collective toast, celebrating the success of the edition and the beginning of a new cycle, reaffirming CASACOR SC as one of the main references of design and architecture in the state.
