Industrial style is a highlight at CASA COR Brasília 2015

Innovating with boldness and modernity, some professionals from CASA COR Brasília 2015 bet on the industrial style trend and brought rustic finishes, shades of gray, and elements such as Corten steel to their spaces to bring this atmosphere to the environments. This style is full of personality, highlights the materials used and is more detached from extravagance, bringing lightness to the place. Gabriela De Rossi explains that one of the characteristics of this style is precisely “leaving its construction elements, such as beams, pillars and pipes, visible”. According to the professional, opting for this style also means “investing in larger spaces, without many walls, making the rooms more integrated and with more rustic elements, transforming the house and giving it a more contemporary feel”. According to the architect, to avoid making mistakes when creating a rustic space, the tip is to create a uniform space, without mixing styles that do not complement each other. “Industrial goes well with a modern and contemporary lifestyle”, she teaches, pointing out exposed bricks, reclaimed wood, unfinished surfaces, burnt cement, concrete and metal as some of the choices that refer to this style. Just like in her space, the Public Lavatory . For Letícia Hammerschmidt, the architect behind Quarto do Jovem , the industrial style is an undeniable trend. The professional explains that the proposals should always follow the resident's profile and preferences. Specific choices, such as shades of gray, cement for the floor, steel cut in the details and planned lighting, give the space an extra charm. She also states that the “harmony of rustic and modern elements” is the key to balancing the style, without overdoing it.

André Alf designed the space Sob o Olhar do Outro , which has an entirely innovative essence in its design. The walls of the space do not require paint, and there is an acrylic panel, which adds charm to the style. Light wood tones prevail, creating a harmonious look and affirming the project's intention of coziness. CASA COLOR Brasilia 2015 When: September 29th to November 10th.
