CASACOR Ceará. Patativa, Alencar, Queiroz and Friends Reading Room - Luciana Brasileiro and Marcílio Sousa. The iron bookcase is the highlight of the project, which is based on burnt cement on the floor and the ceiling in natural wood, with a minimalist feel. The lighting was worked in a yellow tone, making the result even warmer.

CASACOR Paraguay Library - Maria del Rosario Acosta and Isabela Acosta Bartels. The weight and sobriety of the fabrics, tapestry and wood are softened by the glass shelves, with mirrored backs and lighting. The glass also lends lightness to the coffee table, crafted in straight lines.

Reading transports the reader and transcends the pages of the book. That is why it is so essential that the reading space is cozy and peaceful so that the occupant can enjoy their favorite works.

The professionals at CASACOR 2017 created environments for reading and relaxation that combine the literary experience with the aesthetics of works of art, design pieces and renowned furniture. From places rich in collections, such as the Library Collections designed by Igor Borba, to innovative reading rooms, such as the Reading and Tasting Studio by René Fernandes, which adds another activity to the space, the environments dedicated to readers left their mark.
