Francisco Brennand Workshop arrives at CASACOR SP in a project by Renata Patelli

This year, CASACOR São Paulo will host the historic Francisco Brennand Workshop , a National Heritage Site and cultural landmark of the city of Recife. Strategically positioned for free access, the space, designed by Renata Patelli, pays homage to the artisans of Cerâmica Brennand and the legacy of artist Francisco Brennand (1927-2019).

The space prioritizes earthy tones and textures that refer to clay , the raw material of the products on display, and which also evoke the Northeastern hinterland. At the center of the ^48m2 project is the " oven space ", symbolizing the transformation of the egg , an icon of the Brennand brand that represents life in evolution .

A special touch is given by the chair and table designed by Jotta Junior , from the Renata Patelli office. These pieces were inspired by creative studios, with the chair resembling clay modeling tools and the table evoking a pottery wheel.

The display cabinets, with their hollowed-out niches as if the clay had been removed from there, display the finished pieces in a layout reminiscent of an art gallery. The lighting , developed by Thereislight, was inspired by the architecture of Luis Barragán and the style of James Turrell, maintaining a warm light environment but highlighting the products and works of art with a cool tone.

Sustainability is at the heart of the project, reflecting Renata Patelli's commitment to artisanal production and the choice of environmentally friendly materials, integrating art, culture and the environment.
