This editorial, in the warmth of Rio de Janeiro, explores how textures, forms, and curated pieces shape an atmosphere that is both intimate and expressive. This is not just an interior—it’s a story told through materiality, movement, and light. Guided by Gestalt Principles, the space finds balance in the interplay of structure and softness. The Rio Chair by Oscar Niemeyer embodies architectural fluidity, while the Indochine Chair by Charlotte Perriand stands as a testament to functional artistry. These elements contrast beautifully with the deep, inviting embrace of the Cinna Sandra Sofa by Ligne Roset (1970s), creating a rhythm between modernist rigor and relaxed sensuality.
