“Semear Sonhos” (Sowing Dreams)
Casa Paulistana, São Paulo, Brazil,
Spanning 170m² and built entirely from the ground up, the pavilion is one of only two newly constructed structures in this year’s edition. Designed around a reused metal framework from past shows, the project is rooted in sustainability — from its dry construction system and recycled materials to the native species in its garden, crafted by landscape architect Pedro Rabelais.

The structure does not simply open and close. Between these two states lies a continuous spectrum of possibilities. It can be fully open, half open, partially closed, nearly closed, and fully shut. Each state creates a different form, spatial atmosphere, and relationship with people.
Fully open, it feels like a public stage unfolding outward. Half open, it stays connected to the outside while offering a strong sense of shelter. Partially or nearly closed, it becomes quieter and more introverted, like a shell gently drawn inward.
This gradual transformation also plays an important role in actual use. During reading sessions, for instance, the speaker is initially within the closed shell, then gradually revealed to the audience as it opens. In this way, the space becomes part of the event—not as a static backdrop, but as an active presence that unfolds with it, lending the entire experience a subtle sense of ceremony.
Despite its light, shell-like appearance, the project is conceived at an architectural scale rather than as a small installation. When fully opened, the roof spans over 40 square meters, measuring approximately 8 meters by 6 meters—defining a public space for lingering and sheltering. The interior height ranges from 2.5 meters to 4.2 meters, ensuring comfort for reading, gathering, and activities.

Regenerative vegan house, Kagoshima Japan,
Yakushima in southern Japan, with abundant rainfall meets almost 100% of its electricity demand through hydroelectric power.
This building, positioned to harmonize with existing vegetation, rocks and natural spring water, is a regenerative house that not only lets residents feel close to nature but also aims to enrich the natural cycle.
Made from natural, plant-based materials can also be called a "Vegan House," as it is in-tune with the lifestyle of the residents. Its ethical framework that respects life is a concept that redefines the principles of sustainability.

La biofilia non è mettere una pianta sul davanzale.
È una disciplina che studia il rapporto biologicamente radicato tra l'essere umano e i sistemi naturali e la sua applicazione nella progettazione degli spazi - il biophilic design - ha basi scientifiche solide, non estetiche.La biofilia non è mettere una pianta sul davanzale.
Applicare concretamente il biophlic design (o progettazione biofila, in italiano) significa lavorare su parametri precisi: la qualità della luce naturale e il suo ciclo nell'arco della giornata, la presenza di materiali biologicamente familiari al sistema nervoso, la geometria degli spazi, la qualità dell'ambiente sonoro, il rapporto visivo con elementi naturali anche in contesti urbani.
Il risultato non è uno stile ma uno spazio in cui chi abita dorme meglio, si concentra meglio, recupera energia più facilmente. Esistono ricerche che lo misurano.
Il problema è che "biofilia" è diventata una parola di tendenza, spesso usata per giustificare scelte decorative. Questo svuota il termine e disorienta chi vorrebbe fare scelte consapevoli.
Vale la pena distinguere. E vale la pena chiedersi, prima di qualsiasi progetto: questo spazio è pensato per chi lo vive, o solo per chi lo guarda?
Biophilia is not about putting a plant on a windowsill.
It is a discipline that studies the biologically rooted connection between humans and natural systems. Its application in spatial design—biophilic design—is based on solid scientific foundations, not aesthetics.
Implementing biophilic design in practice means working with specific parameters: the quality of natural light and its daily cycle, the use of materials biologically familiar to the nervous system, spatial geometry, acoustic quality, and visual connections to nature even in urban contexts.
The result is not a style, but a space where inhabitants sleep better, focus more effectively, and recover energy more easily. These outcomes are supported by measurable research.
The issue is that 'biophilia' has become a buzzword, often used to justify purely decorative choices. This dilutes the term and misleads those seeking informed design solutions. It is important to make a distinction. Before any project, it is worth asking: is this space designed for those who inhabit it, or only for those who look at it
