The contrasting colours and textures of overlapping carpets,
rough raffia against the luxuriant emerald green of a Diane Von
Furstenberg Climbing Leopard Rug juxtaposed with a neutral
cream, adds depth to a flat surface. The layering of cushions is
custom made using antique fabrics, ikats and an assortment of
other materials such metal studs.
In this home, Gracinha Viterbo turned what was originally in-
tended to be one dining space into a room within a room, by
carving out a second living area. The child´s rooms are fun, com-
fortable, but functional and systematic at the same time. In the
master bedroom, the eclecticism takes on an even bolder execu-
tion with a distinctively tropical feel and a touch of vintage.
Nothing in this eclectic home matches in the conventional sense
of the word but the deliberate dissonance results in a captivating
and harmonious effect.
This project reflects the unique lifestyle and personality of the
client. However, it was left space for the story to be continued, so
that the clients are able to keep “writing the never-ending story”.
