Paolo Pininfarina is one of the most respected designers in the world. It’s his, for instance, the sporting lines of Ferrari and Alfa Romeo. His visit to Brazil, therefore, is being quite celebrated. On Wednesday evening, for example, Paolo got a dinner at Jorge Yunes’ place, where Bia Yunes and Carla Guarita, who represent the designer here at Coleções Escritório de Arte, performed the duties of cicerones.
* The dinner was intended to unite the work of Pininfarina to Brazilian businessmen, but the night’s conversation was around what many had anticipated. It all points to Pininfarina having received calls from soccer teams such as Palmeiras and Flamengo, on projects for the new stadiums to be ready for the World Cup. At Parque Antártica, it seems that he will customize one or more boxes, all following the Italian tradition.
* That’s when Paolo got to talking to Ângelo Derenze, president of Casa Cor, and David Bastos and Olavo Setubal, who also spent the night very chilled. At dinner, the Italian was impressed by the minced beef and mashed banana and farofa from Viko’s caterer, who prepared a very Brazilian menu, which also included moqueca and pirão. Who else was there? They also took Gil Faiwichow and Fernanda Marques, Ugo Di Pace, Luiz Paulo Rosenberg and others. Just check out our gallery. On Thursday, the designer took a chopper to Quinta da Baroness with Bia Yunes and Carla Guarita, and it seems that the reason was work.
