Project: Ekko Showcase
Year: 2022
Area: 6 sq. m.
Location: Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Lead Architect: Marina Romeiro
Created for the CasaShopping design center, the Ekko Showcase was conceived around the theme “Stories to Tell.”
The design’s starting point is a poetic homage to the 1922 Modern Art Week—a landmark cultural movement in the country’s history—celebrating the deep roots of Brazilian identity.
The choice of materials dictates the vibrant energy of the project. The centerpiece is a geometric tile panel, developed in partnership with Emme Due. Its shades of yellow, blue, and white envelop the room, working in perfect harmony with the colorful ceiling and lush greenery.
This striking contrast between the raw, rustic texture of the stones and the joyful graphic patterns allows the space to radiate both vitality and warmth.
