1. Theme

This year, CASACOR proposes a return to its origins, rescuing and drawing inspiration from affective memories in balance with a modern touch. The spaces manage to unite past and future in proposals that reflect the need for comfort, coziness and functionality in homes . The concept is reflected in all projects, but stands out even more in environments such as Canto do Tempo e do Alento , by Ângela Cambraia, from CasaCam Arquitetura. With references to her origins in Ceará, the architect proposes a reinterpretation of the "grandmother's house" with second-hand furniture, family objects and the use of materials that hark back to the past, such as wood, brick, iron, straw, rope and stone. Modernity is present in the wine cellar that opens up the space. Architects Ney Lima and Walléria Teixeira, with over 18 participations in CASACOR Brasília , adorn Casa Duratex with personal objects and photos taken from the family album. The 168m² space evokes the coziness of home, with rustic objects, highlighting textures and materials. . With natural wood mashrabiyas, the space has cross ventilation and thermal comfort, with 100% sustainable wood cladding on the walls and ceilings. The designer furniture design is one of the strong points, as well as the curated works of art.

2. Trends

As is tradition, CASACOR Brasília is ahead of the curve and reveals trends in the architectural scene. This time, the highlight was the use of natural materials, such as stone and wood , present in most of the environments, giving a special touch to the projects.
