CASACOR Ceará: New conversation between modern and regional in 36 spaces
Esdras Guimarães_0407 Living Room Inspiration
01/39 -

Living Room - Rodrigo Maia. The source of inspiration was the architect's own property, with characteristics from the 1980s. Hence the striking presence of stone masonry, which contrasts with the Greek marble on the floor and demarcates the bar area, along with the lowered ceiling. Dark wood, also widely used in that decade, features in the furniture, with more delicate lines.

Esdras Guimarães_1427 Pearl Balcony
07/39 -

Perla Balcony - Susana Clark Fiúza. The flooring features the venato pearl extracted from the interior of Ceará. The material interacts with the exposed concrete on the ceiling and creates a contemporary atmosphere, which breaks the expectation of rusticity in outdoor areas. Pieces designed by Marcelo Ligieri and Jader Almeida coexist with Ceará craftsmanship.

09/39 -

TV Room with Games - André Pires, Marcelo Antero and Alexandre Macêdo - Vila Morena.

Collector's Dining Room - Rodrigo Porto. 21st century luxury values minimalism and the essential.

Austin Bar, Ceara
20/39 -

Bar Austin, Ceará - João Paulo Kikumoto, Geórgia Vieira and João Dias. Brazilian architecture from the 1970s meets the geometric and vertical layout of Texas, a US state that shares some similarities with Ceará, such as its heat and desert. The American flag is discreetly cited in the blue of the denim-covered bar and in the burgundy stripe that runs from the wall to the ceiling.

Esdras Guimarães_1145 Geek Suite
21/39 -

Geek Suite - Geórgia Vieira and João Dias. The noir ambiance comes from classic 1950s movies and games, exploring intense shadows, transparencies and the contrast between light and dark. The white epoxy floor and acrylic and metal details give it a high-tech feel. The bed is suspended, freeing up space for the rock band. Although the premise is modernity, the turquoise furniture is reminiscent of the Ceará coast.

Esdras Guimarães_1487 Cocó Playground
22/39 -

Cocó Playground - Lucimary Holanda and Danielle Araripe. The challenge of creating a children's environment in a shipping container was overcome by opening the space to the outside area.

In the 19th edition of CASACOR Ceará , the professionals had a challenge: to discover Ceará. To do so, they exercised other perspectives and representations of the state, reflecting the development, innovation and modernity achieved in recent years. At the same time, there is a reunion with the roots and essence - after all, we cannot forget that the focus on the essential is the national theme of CASACOR in 2017.

The chosen property is conducive to this dialogue of references, with large open areas, a garden, social areas and a swimming pool. There are over 2,400 m² of built area and 5,300 m² of open area. The professionals used the maximum potential of the spaces, who developed the contrast between regionalism and modernity. Works by local artists and artisans coexist with contemporary furniture and trends, such as the ombré effect in the painting of the walls, shades of green and blue, metallics and the industrial style.

Minimalism is a language that is gaining ground, translated into clean concrete walls and ceilings or the occasional use of wood. Another reference, derived from the desire for the essential, is the oriental style - it emerges in the purity of forms and the simplicity of materials.

By breaking the expectation of rusticity and pointing out other possibilities, CASACOR Ceará broadens horizons without failing to value what is most authentic, such as the tones of the sea, the aridity of the backlands and the always open sky throughout Ceará.
