Lounge Gourmet - Juiana Carvalho, Camila Sanguiné and Heloisa Bocorny: in a space with a classic feel, the cobogó creates an interesting modern contrast, while at the same time assuming its role of filtering the natural light that arrives from the street with grandeur.

Businesswoman's Office - Gabriele Avila: in the background, the cobogó takes on the role of bringing softness to the space aimed at the corporate segment. A good idea here was also to insert shelves between the empty spaces of the element, which helps to filter the light better.

Patent of the 21st Century - Studio Marcelo Oliveira: here, the cobogós come in as a partition, which allows the synergy of light between the bedroom and bathroom and also gives a rustic look to both places.

A well-known element in modern architecture and Brazilian homes, the cobogó was created by the Portuguese Amadeu Oliveira Coimbra, the German Ernesto August Boeckmann and the Brazilian Antônio de Góis. Note that the initials of each of their last names inspired the creation of the name of this hollow element that decorates and, at the same time, brings poetry to spaces. This is because, by filtering natural light, the cobogós draw distinct shapes on the floors and walls, depending on the time of day and the position of the sun. Since 1920, when it was created in Recife by the aforementioned architects, until now, the item has been used creatively (and very functionally, of course) in the most diverse projects. At CASACOR Rio Grande do Sul 2017 , for example, it appears in the interiors of some spaces, subtly saying what it came for and lending all its Brazilianness with a lot of flair. Check it out below!
