Interiors: The House From Ipanema

Ipanema Beach Villa by Didier Gomez

Forget spots. Thanks to FIFA fever, I see fab Brazilian interiors everywhere! Especially the modern kind that conjure thoughts of 60's bossa nova (my personal favorite). Lovingly restored by Didier Gomez, this home stays true to its roots with period furnishings to match its mid-century architecture. Mix in Brazilian and African influences and you have a quaint little bungalow at the edge of Ipanema beach.
