Casa Cavanelas - Set in the verdant hills of Petrópolis, this summer retreat is a rare dialogue between two masters of Latin Modernism: architect Oscar Niemeyer and landscape designer Roberto Burle Marx. Niemeyer’s low, glass-walled pavilion, defined by sweeping concave lines and orthogonal precision, opens in every direction to Burle Marx’s living canvas — a garden of curving beds, vivid colours, and indigenous plants in constant conversation with the surrounding Atlantic Forest. From the soft geometry of a chequered lawn to bold sculptural bromeliads, every view is a composition, every turn a new rhythm of form, texture, and light. Here, nature and architecture are not opposing forces, but equal partners in a poetic, modernist vision. @theworldofinteriors
