Nomad Studio was requested as a transit space for a photographer. Constant traveler, he needed a space where he could spend a few days working and enjoying the city. His cosmopolitan habits have challenged the distinction between home and work to make room for a versatile space that has become his refuge. The studio is entered through the gallery, which has lower ceiling than the other spaces. All covered with natural walnut veneer, it exposes author's photographic works and memories and also hides access to the kitchen.

The one space that succeeds the gallery serves as living room, office and even a passing dormitory. It has floor, walls and ceiling all covered with burnt cement, with no interference of lighting on the ceiling and fabric curtains over the large openings overlooking the city at the height of the street treetops. A wooden panel hides the access to the toilet and frames a serving hatch of bronze mirror that not only connects the main space to the kitchen, but also reflects the view from the window.

Indirect light falls on furniture and objects that stand out through the contrast between natural and technological materials, rough and polished textures, warm and cold touch. The introspective atmosphere of the shadows, the absence of brightness and the shades of gray gain comfort through the mixture with the whitish tones of paper and straw, brownish of wood and earth and greenish of plants. The pieces of modern and contemporary design include Beg armchair by Sergio Rodrigues, vases by Domingos Tótora, armchairs by Jader Almeida and a Jacaranda wood coffee table from the 1960’s.
