CASACOR SP: A sensory space that awakens the desire for touch
01-casabraile-casacorsp2016 Leo Romano believes that "architecture is a path to happiness, and that the observer should be an accomplice in the interpretation of the environment". Therefore, for CASA COR São Paulo 2016 , the architect designed Casa Braile , a sensory space that invites visitors to touch. 02-casabraile-casacorsp2016 For this work, the professional started from the assumption of the "concept" so as not to create a space that was common and fit into something. He sought a way for the visitor to reflect and think about new possibilities for living. 05-casabraile-casacorsp2016 Leo Romano created an environment that alludes to a dining and living room in a box covered in micro-perforated aluminum panels from Hunter Dougles, which refers to the world of Braille. The tactile meaning in raised dots is typical of the writing and reading system developed for the blind, inviting the visitor to touch and look with their hands. 03-casabraile-casacorsp2016 A gradation of pink tones marks the space through furniture, rugs, objects and coverings. 04-casabraile-casacorsp2016 The architect also launched some furniture from his new collection, entitled "Bailarina", which includes a dining table, sideboard, floor mirror and wall mirror. Decorative items were also launched in the space and developed in partnership with visual artist Iêda Jardim. HOUSE COLOR SERVICE SAO PAULO 2016 WHEN? May 17 to July 10, 2016.
