The decoration of the
apartment of Pil Marques, DJ and music producer in São Paulo, came out in the
most unexpectedly way by the hands of the Brazilian architect Guilherme Torres
and his staff.
The initial idea was to
simply help the owner organize his countless collections,
and adapt it to the style and taste of his flat mates, the artist Daniel
Zanardi and also DJ Adriana Recchi.
When the architect began
the process of immersion in the lives of the owners, he decided to radicalize
and a venture that lasted four days involving the whole team of architects, painters
and electricians working until the wee hours to conclude together the work that
Guilherme considered one of his masterpieces.
Unlike common processes
in the world of decoration, where usually there are a lot of new furnishings,
this work involved many pieces of value. Amazing dolls to furniture were carefully
hand-picked and the work involved a curatorial aesthetic.
The wide living room,
before painted white, gained welcoming tones of blue. With this color, it was
possible to create a strong base, which brought together all the different
elements.
New key pieces were
added, like the sheepskin rug, the large sofa, the black shelves. Another highlight
was given to Pil’s equipment, now facing the entrance hall.
The kitchen, integrated
with the living room, was painted pink. And not even in this space the
collections is set aside, on the contrary! There are collections of china,
penguins, clowns and rabbits…a delight for the eyes.
The climate remains in
all areas, as in the bathroom with the walls taken by objects ‘mined’ around
the world. Pil’s bedroom received his favorite toys.
A house constantly changing,
reflects the spirit of the owners, urban and trendy people.
