New ABD book portrays 100 years of interiors in the country

Brasil Porta Adentro is the new book by ABD – Brazilian Association of Interior Designers – that brings together several interesting facts and historical facts about interior design in Brazil. The entire text was written by journalist Cristina Dantas, a specialist in decoration and design, with content curated by interior designer Roberto Negrete and coordinated by Renata Amaral. It will be published by Editora C4 and will be available in bookstores nationwide at the end of October 2015, but you can already order a copy on the ABD website . “It is a historical document for both students and professionals in the field and those passionate about the subject. With old photos and interesting facts, this publication has everything to become a must-read and, above all, an enjoyable one,” says Renata Amaral, president of ABD.

The book Brasil Porta Adentro will also mark the 35th anniversary of ABD, a pioneering institution in the segment in Brazil, which will also gain a chapter dedicated to telling the history of the association, since its foundation in 1980. In Brasília, the publication will be launched during an event for guests on October 29, at the CasaPark shopping mall. Among the many stories highlighted, the list of the country's first decorators could not be left out, narrating the professional evolution of interior designers. The text brings information from the first visual artists, metalworkers, carpenters, painters and high-society women who ventured into the field of design. “There will be a look at the history of professionals who are currently forgotten, such as Eliseu Visconti, considered one of the most important Brazilian artists. An immigrant from Italy, he was responsible for the decoration of the Municipal Theater of Rio de Janeiro,” explains Roberto Negrete.
