The space integrates technology, design and landscaping in a project responding to the 39th edition’s theme, “Mind and Heart”<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

S\u00c3O PAULO<\/strong> – Architect Beatriz Quinelato has designed “Cozinha Brastemp: Um Lugar de Transforma\u00e7\u00e3o” (“Brastemp Kitchen: A Place of Transformation”) for CASACOR S\u00e3o Paulo 2026, developed in partnership with Brazilian appliance brand Brastemp. It marks Quinelato’s fifth appearance at the show, which runs June 2 through Aug. 9 at Parque da \u00c1gua Branca, in the western zone of the city. Spanning 72 square meters, the environment was conceived as a working kitchen for the duration of the season, open to visitors and workshops alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Responding to the curatorial theme “Mind and Heart,” the project takes its cue from the rhythms of everyday kitchen life: the preparation of food and the lingering presence of those who gather to witness it. Quinelato sought to balance technology and architecture so that the space functions with genuine practicality beyond visual appeal. Throughout the run of CASACOR, the kitchen will host groups for culinary activities and appliance demonstrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drawn directly from Brastemp’s visual identity, the room’s palette combines green and marsala. Color was deployed, according to the project team, as structural logic rather than decoration, in coherence with the brand’s products on display. Verde Pantanal marble, supplied by Granos M\u00e1rmores, sheathes the countertops and the central island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Underfoot, the flooring is finished in Terrazzo by Donata Stone, executed with Napoleon Bordeaux marble chips sourced from Michelangelo M\u00e1rmores. The surface runs continuously into the dining area, establishing a visual throughline between the kitchen’s distinct zones. It is a recurring material in Quinelato’s CASACOR work, where she has consistently favored mineral-based finishes in high-traffic areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Positioned at the room’s center, the island consolidates the main cooking equipment and organizes movement between those who prepare and those who observe. Dining area and bar connect directly to this nucleus, with no physical partitions between zones. Quinelato’s stated intention was to dissolve the hierarchy between cooking and dining, allowing both functions to coexist without spatial deference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running the full width of the space along the windows, the landscaping by Renata Florence draws the interior into dialogue with the surrounding Parque da \u00c1gua Branca, one of S\u00e3o Paulo’s most storied green areas and the natural backdrop of the show. Species were selected for low maintenance, chosen to endure more than two months of continuous public exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All millwork was executed by L\u00edder Design, which also supplied the furniture. Among the key pieces is a Gomo sofa in green, fixed to the shelving unit and positioned to expand the room’s use beyond cooking. Manquezal bar stools accompany the island, while Ada chairs, side tables by Fernando Jaeger and a Max dining table compose the adjacent dining area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Produced by Paulo Carvalho and drawn to measure, the shelving unit receives a curated selection of decorative and functional objects. Lighting was designed by Elluce Ilumina\u00e7\u00e3o, which developed a system calibrated to the space’s varying functions, from recipe preparation to the reception of guests. The firm has also supplied lighting for other environments within this edition of the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brastemp appliances are distributed throughout with deliberate intent. A five-burner gas cooktop is installed at the island’s center, flanked by a Tbox island hood and the Box84AE electric oven. The BMO40AR microwave and the BRO88 refrigerator complete the preparation zone, while a 15-place Eclipse Collection dishwasher integrates seamlessly into the cabinetry. At the bar, two 76-liter retro-style fridges anchor the drinks station, one finished in Marsala Wine. Brastemp has noted that CASACOR serves as a platform for presenting pre-launch products to a dual audience of industry professionals and general visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specialist suppliers were engaged across every discipline. Automation systems were provided by Wedoo; plumbing fixtures by Deca; wall and floor finishes by Colormix Revestimentos; paint by Coral; and construction by Tizo Construtora. Air conditioning is by AGK; textiles by Quaker. Furniture and objects were sourced from Galeria Mar\u00edlia Razuk, Galeria WG, Fernando Jaeger Atelier and Pavio Vintage, a set of partnerships typical of CASACOR’s broader ecosystem of design and craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now in its fifth CASACOR S\u00e3o Paulo, Quinelato’s work has consistently prioritized materiality and functionality across previous editions, qualities that run unbroken through the current collaboration with Brastemp, which extends her history of partnerships with appliance and construction brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
