Text description provided by the architects. A Casa (The Home) – Museum of the Brazilian Object is a project designed as the new headquarters of this non-profit organization under the general management of Renata Mellão. The new facility will house the exhibition sector for artisanal, semi-artisanal or industrial objects as an expression of culture. It focuses on Brazilian production, centering on everything in and about Brazil. The focus may extend to other countries in terms of achieving a greater understanding of the Brazilian situation. The interest is not solely in the objects themselves, but also in the process and context in which they were designed, made and consumed. There is also interest in the network of cultural mediations that strengthen and enable the socialization of cultural productions.
