A place to cozy up and feel at home: the Living Room was designed to have all the comfort and well-being that a home should have. That's because, when designing the CASACOR Ceará 2019 project, architect Brenda Rolim went back to her own roots and selected objects, textures and furniture that most closely identified with Ceará's culture. The idea was to recreate the living rooms of the past, where all the decor communicated the tastes and values of the resident. Making regionalism its most striking feature, the space was entirely composed of local furniture, signed by several designers from the Northeast. A sculpture made from clay jugs gives new value to the pots, usually used as refrigerators in the backlands of Ceará, but here reinterpreted as works of art.
