PN + | Paula Neder - Carmim. Uma mulher madura que honra a própria história é a moradora imaginária do loft de 84 m² dotado de releituras contemporâneas da tradição francesa, como as boiseries e molduras nas paredes. A clássica base em branco e preto (reiterada por telas em grande formato de Raul Mourão) ganha toques de carmim e compõe um refúgio recheado de arte, artesanias, texturas e espaço para o autocuidado (note a bicicleta ergométrica perto da cama). A decoração exalta os têxteis, como as cortinas com estampa de Dominique Jardy. No living se destacam a colagem de Bebel Franco entre os janelões e o móbile de Eugenio Vojkovic no canto.

The energy of a home is often associated with the feeling that a space transmits to the people who occupy it. Some spaces invite you to stay, favor rest, and provide comfort, while others seem more heavy, disorganized, or unwelcoming. This perception does not depend only on beliefs or symbolism: it is also influenced by concrete aspects of architecture, decor, and the maintenance of the projects.

Lighting, ventilation, circulation, organization, and even the presence of natural elements help build the atmosphere of a home. When these factors are neglected, the everyday experience can become less pleasant. Below, we have gathered some habits and characteristics that can affect the energy of the home — and small changes capable of making the projects more balanced.

Excess of accumulated objects


Unused objects, excessive furniture, and constantly occupied surfaces can transmit a sense of visual disorder and hinder circulation through the projects. Periodically reviewing what really makes sense to keep in the home helps free up space and makes the projects lighter and more functional.

Lack of natural light


Natural lighting influences the perception of spaces and contributes to creating more comfortable projects. Excessively dark projects tend to seem smaller and less welcoming. Whenever possible, it is worth favoring the entry of light through light curtains, unobstructed windows, and layouts that better take advantage of the available luminosity.

Poorly ventilated projects


Air renewal also interferes with the sense of comfort. Projects closed for long periods can concentrate odors, humidity, and cause a perception of heavier space. Opening doors and windows daily favors air circulation and improves environmental conditions, especially in places with good cross ventilation.

Lack of connection with nature


The presence of plants, gardens, or even a view of green areas tends to make projects more pleasant. This closeness to nature helps create spaces for staying and relaxing. Even in compact apartments, pots, planters, and species adapted to indoor projects help establish this connection.

Inadequate lighting


A single light source hardly meets the different needs of daily routine. Projects that are excessively lit or too dark can compromise both comfort and functionality. The combination of general, indirect, and accent lighting allows for creating more balanced atmospheres for each moment of the day.

Spaces without identity


Homes that do not reflect the habits and preferences of their residents tend to convey a sense of impersonality. Sentimental objects, works of art, books and handcrafted pieces help build more welcoming projects. More than following trends, decor can tell stories and strengthen the emotional bond with the space.

Neglected maintenance


Small accumulated problems — such as leaks, worn paint, damaged furniture or faulty lighting — interfere with both the appearance and the everyday experience of the home. Preventive maintenance preserves the quality of the projects and prevents these details from compromising the feeling of comfort over time.
