CASACOR São Paulo 2016. Living da Praia - David Bastos. The predominant white only gives license to other soft tones, such as pink and the blue serenity of the kitchen cabinet, which houses the ceramics from Studio Heloísa Galvão. In the center, the brushed steel table evokes the industrial style, designed by the architect for Mekal. The seating reinforces the proximity of natural elements in the curtain's palm straw, cotton rug and linen sofas.

CASACOR São Paulo 2016. Living dos Amigos - Alexandra Tobler. This urban oasis brings references to the Scandinavian style, evident in the pastel tones.

CASACOR São Paulo 2016. Estúdio Jabuticaba - Nildo José. The multifunctional concrete bench surrounds the space and is a key piece in the 43m2 loft. It serves as a hat rack, sideboard, shelf, fireplace log holder and dining table bench. The feeling of continuity and spaciousness comes from the use of Canadian wood on the floor without baseboards and on the walls. And the name of the space comes from the jabuticaba tree in the living room.

CASACOR São Paulo 2016. Tribute to 30 - Roberto Migotto. Three decades of CASA COR and the same length of the architect's career are celebrated in the space that harks back to the 1930s. More precisely, the era of French designer Jean-Michel Frank and even artist Salvador Dalí, who designed a chair in the space. With his partner Ricardo Minelli, Minotto worked with nude tones, especially on the parchment-covered walls. Some of them also display works by the duo EMME2.

CASACOR Goiás 2016. Bathroom – Eduardo Bittar and Karla Bittar. The space was designed as a refuge. When choosing finishes, natural, ecological and sustainable materials were prioritized, such as bamboo rulers and sheets on the floor and ceiling.

In terms of furniture, the highlight is the Oscar armchair, by Sérgio Rodrigues; Banco Trinco, by Lia Siqueira; in addition to the series of photographs of Amazonas, by artist Adriana Bittar.

Gourmet Balcony in Rio - Silvana Albuquerque. The beauty and joy of Rio inspire this light, bright setting, full of designer pieces. The reclaimed wood is present, but the use of 3D wall cladding and elegant tones such as off-white and blue balance the style between rustic and modern. Another modern detail is the brushed brass light fixtures.

Pastel colors are less vibrant and less bright, but they are not always light. They tend to convey a sense of peace and calm to the environment, as well as making it more elegant. At CASACOR Brasília 2016 , Débora Brayner, who designed the Flat Terracota , chose pastel tones as the predominant tones in the composition of a delicate and feminine space. "Pastel tones are timeless, sophisticated and make any space inviting and cozy," says the professional, who chose specific objects in more intense colors to compose the décor.
