Founded in 2012 by architects Mônica Pinto, Arnaldo Pinho and Isabel Veiga, the maai arquitetura office, headquartered in Brasília and operating nationally and internationally, celebrates its debut at the prestigious São Paulo exhibition.
Studio Theodoro by Felipe Carolo reimagines a 72 m² dwelling as a playful journey through dreaming, building, and realizing—three core concepts inspired by CASACOR São Paulo 2025’s “Sowing Dreams” theme. Moreover, this modernist homage weaves Bauhaus principles and Brazilian vernacular into a sensory, emotionally rich experience.
Sala Clareira invites visitors into a sensory world where urban life and nature converge. Designed by Sala 2 Arquitetura for CASACOR São Paulo 2025, this 42 m² living room reinterprets the exhibition theme “Sowing Dreams.” Moreover, it offers a journey that awakens the senses and slows the mind.
From the moment the owners stepped into the 98 m² WT Apartment in São Paulo, they felt the weight of its history. Indeed, the exposed concrete structure—with its raw-finish slabs, beams, and pillars—spoke of time passed. However, the outdated layout and infrastructure demanded a renovation that would both honor these original elements and fulfill contemporary needs.
Salma Tower by aflalo/gasperini arquitetos is a 16-story corporate landmark that marries high performance with vibrant biophilia. Consequently, it transforms the workplace into a suspended forest, complete with fruit trees, birdsong, and forest breezes weaving through boardrooms, cafés, and workstations.
Urban Oasis Apartment is a home for a couple and their three children. Moreover, it offers generous indoor and outdoor spaces, a custom barbecue area, and seamless garden integration. Consequently, the renovation transforms a low-ceiling, Norman-style loft with brick walls into a contemporary family haven.
In his first participation at CASACOR São Paulo, architect Rodra delves into his origins with “Potiguar Studio”, a space imbued with references to his homeland, Rio Grande do Norte. For the 38th edition of the exhibition, themed “Sowing Dreams,” he has conceived a project profoundly inspired by the cultural richness of Brazil’s Northeast
In his third participation at CASACOR and second in São Paulo, architect Natan Gil unveils Loft Whispers of the Mountains—a 90 m² sanctuary nestled in a heritage‐listed building at Parque da Água Branca. Here, clean lines and a neutral palette serve as a silent stage, allowing nature, memory, and sculptural furniture to tell an evocative story.
Beatriz Quinelato’s “Sopro” transforms a 1930s building within Parque da Água Branca into a 45 m² sanctuary that balances heritage and innovation. As part of her fourth CASACOR São Paulo collaboration, Quinelato invites visitors to slow down, breathe, and renew—echoing this year’s “Sowing Dreams” theme—through thoughtful material choices, fluid layouts, and a palette inspired by nature.
