CASACOR SP: A garden with straight lines and draining flooring

French architect Henri Sajous was responsible for the renovation of the building years later, bringing larger spaces and more classic lines to the place. To add even more beauty to this architectural and historical wealth, Maria Lucia and Felipe Alalou designed the Reception Garden , which complemented and gave life to the entrance of CASA COR São Paulo 2016 . 94369-jardim-jardim-da-recepcao-casa-cor-sp-2016-alalou-paisagismo-viva-decora-94369

A ground-mounted bollard was also used, with an effect similar to airport runway lighting, to direct people to the reception/ticket collection area and exit to the next area.
