Anyone who has visited CASACOR Rio knows that no matter which room you are in, you can see the extensive green area that runs along the outside of the Brando Barbosa Residence from all of them. There are 12,000 square meters of gardens with native plants from the Atlantic Forest, which surround the 19th century mansion. This privilege is only possible thanks to the residence's 60 French doors and large windows , which prioritize cross ventilation and natural lighting. Check out seven ideas below on how to bring greenery into your home! 
Casa Up , a complete and multifunctional residence created by UP3 Arquitetura, offers a simple but striking solution: glass panels , which frame the garden and add much more color to the decor. To complete the look, cobogós were used as a decorative element, giving the composition an irresistible charm. 
The seven windows of Espaço III Small Study Room quickly caught the eye of Lia, Felipe and Betina Siqueira, who designed a light and sunny library. The five-meter ceiling height allows natural light to flow throughout the space – a brightness that is reflected even more by the white walls. Fresh and bright , the space opens up to the gardens with mastery. 
In the Atrium , an intimate balcony designed to welcome guests, the eye is immediately drawn to the residence's original arches , which frame the gardens. The generous openings of the residence's former porte-cochère have been given a tropical and relaxed atmosphere by the hands of Cynthia Berlandez Pedrosa and Raphael Pedrosa Zay. 
Outside, Anna Luiza Rothier's gourmet balcony functions as an extension of the house , a way to enjoy the best of nature and outdoor life . Multifunctional, the Couple's Balcony can be used for meals, as a resting area or for contemplation. The tropical climate of the native vegetation is reinforced by the choice of furniture. 
The colours of Jean de Just's Winter Garden are based on green. Whether it's the tiles on the walls, which reference the 18th century tile tradition ; the arrangement of vases, the fabrics on the furniture or the lush vertical garden , one thing is certain: natural or not, green is here to stay . 
For a seven-year-old girl's bedroom, Paula Neder and the PN+ Collective designed a multifunctional space that can be used for resting, studying and playing. Many of the original elements were kept, but to give the decor a delicate charm , Júlia's room was given wallpaper with a setting similar to a fantastic forest – a creative solution that still brings greenery into the interior.
