Tiago Freire – Empório Cooking 2 Go. With decor inspired by old neighborhood grocery stores, the space sells food created by Cooking Buffet to be consumed anywhere: it can be in the garden, at a picnic, at home or even outside, outside. Located in the house's old workshop, the space bears the marks of time on the peeling walls with exposed bricks and on pieces that already belonged to the space, such as the old tank and tiles, which were restored. But it takes on a contemporary feel with the furniture created by the architect especially for the exhibition. (André Nazareth/)
In the middle of a residential garden , architect Roberta Nicolau opted for blue-toned cushions to create a space where you can relax and socialize while enjoying the fresh air and nature. The urban style is contrasted with a delicate design by designer Rafael Mirre on the walls, which shows that it is possible to incorporate a delicate aspect into the project without much effort. Called Chá Bar , the project featured elements typical of a more industrial atmosphere, such as bricks and iron that pave the space. 
The Casa UP project took nature into account in different ways: sometimes in the creation of a welcoming space, sometimes in the way it was created, respecting the environment without generating almost any waste . With a Rio de Janeiro style mixed with Scandinavian , the garden project brings a true connection with nature. Leading the project, Michelle Wilkinson, Thiago Morsh and Cadé Marino, from UP3 Arquitetura , invested in shades of gray mainly to compose the garden, as it is a color that conveys warmth and tranquility . An openwork lilac panel on the back of the poufs adds a more modern touch to the calm atmosphere. 
The impressive modern tilework inspired by Noel Marinho 's classics was present at this year's event. Named Terraço NM in homage, the project was designed by Patricia Marinho, Manuèle Colás, Heloísa Amaral Peixoto and Carolina Cascardo, from Estúdio Design Noel Marinho. The mix between classic and contemporary is evident. The house has an older style, and the tiles create a modern intervention in the space. Highlights include the pieces designed in the outdoor area by Patrícia, who made them during quarantine using some of her father Noel Marinho's tiles. 
The Couple's Balcony was designed by landscaper Anna Luiza Rothier. Functionality and beauty were the hallmarks of the project, which can be used as a space to relax, enjoy nature and welcome guests. The space was designed in a more intimate way, where a couple can enjoy the view, watch a sunset and enjoy the romantic atmosphere that the space offers through its tropical climate fostered by the use of wood, colors and the nature that surrounds the balcony .
