Talk Casacor Rio – Infinito Particular environment

The Infinito Particular environment, designed by architects Izabela Lessa and Fernanda Zanetta for CasaCor Rio 2024, was the setting for an exclusive event organised by Ornare. Led by Ana Paula Iespa, from Prosperar, the meeting brought together big names from the artistic and architectural world, including the space’s art curator, Heloísa Amaral Peixoto, the architects themselves and artists such as Anna Helena Cazzani, Claudia Kayat, among other professionals present.

The aim of the event was to learn about the creative process of the architects, who were inspired by the legacy of modernism, with an emphasis on the harmonious integration of architecture, furniture design and art. As Heloísa Amaral Peixoto emphasised, the proposal was one of balance, using pieces and objects that went beyond the conventional boundaries of art. The curators sought out pieces that would dialogue with the spirit of modernism. In this context, Ornare furniture played a fundamental role, offering a space that unites functionality and art in a unique way.
