Corner for Time and Breath
CASACOR | BSB 2021
The environment proposes a meeting of the present and the past, in its 75m². First, it opens into the wine room, an intimate environment with its wine rack, colors and layout, inviting relaxation and good conversation. Elba Cambraia’s canvas attached to the rack stands out, a point that governs the palette.
Moving further into the space, divided by a corrugated glass and iron retractable door, it opens into the pantry and kitchen. These carry the lightness, warmth and simplicity of a farmhouse, the protagonist of childhood vacations. In the pantry, antique furnishings such as the tea cart and the small crystal cabinet stand out between the new pink cupboard and the porcelain-topped table. The kitchen, with its cladding reminiscent of handcrafted beige tiles, carries a sweet nostalgia.
Furniture by Jader Rodrigues designed especially for the environment are also prominent: the table supporting the stove where fruits and vegetables are stored, the stools, the base of the pantry table, the chairs made of iron, wood and leather with clean lines, the floor lamp in the wine room, and the coat rack among wooden objects.
