| DESIGN NAME: Aqwa Corporate Lobby PRIMARY FUNCTION: Building hall INSPIRATION: Your gaze upon arriving in space is for the grandeur that has its interior. Then, when you absorb this scale, you observe the beautiful scenery of Guanabara Bay and then come across our layout. So the layout is in a complement to space. We use the side of the frames to make our layout and on the opposite side, next to the aluminum panel, we position the works of art. Therefore, the Lobby has nothing in its central span, you only notice its architecture, its noble materials, and its large scale. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Casa Cor Rio 2017 takes place in a revitalized area in the Port Area of Rio de Janeiro, Porto Maravilha Project. In this scenario emerges Aqwa Corporate, a luxurious corporate complex with partnership Foster and Patners and Tishman Speyer. Its privileged location facing the Bay of Guanabara also provides insight into the Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf. We received the challenge of decorating the grandiose and beautiful Lobby, and used furniture signed by consecrated Brazilian designers. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: With a selection of incredible materials and neutral color palette, we are only responsible for its layout, except for its reception desk, also designed by Foster and Partners. So we opted for a layout that did not compete with architecture, but rather complemented it. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project of the lobby's layout started in August 2017 and finished in October 2017 in Rio de Janeiro. It is in Aqwa Corporate, Via Binario do Porto, 299, Porto Maravilha, Rio de Janeiro. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The definition of the colors of our project took into consideration the existing materials: Brazilian exotic stones in the floor and granite walls White Macaubas with detail in Black Cosmic granite, besides panels of aluminum sheet beaded in lead color. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: All furnishings are from the Arquivo Contemporaneo: Alta armchair with Marquesas by Oscar Niemeyer, Arcos center tables and Ciranda side tables by Ricardo Fasanello, Bow sofas by Bruno Faucz, Dora and Celine armchairs, Mush side table and Memory, Arch and Jardim by Jader Almeida, and Iaia stool, by Gustavo Bittencourt. The works of art are by Angelo Venosa, Gustavo Prado and Walter Goldfarb, curated by Vanda Klabin. The desconstructed flower arrangements are from the Officina Floreale and the landscaping by Carmem Mouro. The rugs present in the two environments of the lobby are from Phenicia Concept. The CAP Marcenaria produced the cachepots. TAGS: Lobby, Interior, art, casacor, architecture RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Our intervention in space was very carefully, since this space belongs to a great architect. Inquiring about this architecture concerning its buildings, we notice that almost never there is furniture, and the few that exist are always near the window frames. CHALLENGE: The Lobby is the business card for a building, it prints the dna of its occupants and should reflect and be integrated into the concept of the existing architecture and the function of its use. Its furniture should be easy to maintain, comfortable. Because it is a public waiting area in a commercial building, its layout should provide individualization options for its user, perhaps a last moment of adjustments before an important business meeting. The first area is just at the entrance and the second is next to the restaurant, which could possibly serve as a place to wait in certain moments.
