São Paulo, 2022 – The launch event for the book Salvador Candia, Arquiteto will take place next Tuesday (August 16) at the headquarters of the Council of Architecture and Urbanism of São Paulo (CAU/SP). Authored by Eduardo Ferroni and published in partnership between the Stickel Foundation and Editora Monolito, the book commemorates the career of Campo Grande-born architect Salvador Candia, known for establishing an alternative path to Brazilian modern architecture from the 1950s to the 1990s. The significance of the architect's contribution to the field will be the focus of a discussion at the event between Eduardo Ferroni and the book’s editor-in-chief, Fernando Serapião.
An educational video that traces the trajectory of urbanist Ermínia Maricato, examines her key theoretical contributions, and, in doing so, provides insight into the evolution of Brazilian urbanization over the last few decades.
During the first three decades of the last century, the landscape of Salvador was indelibly transformed by a group of Italian immigrants: engineers, architects, builders, decorators, painters, and sculptors hailing from diverse regions of Italy, from Calabria to Tuscany, Basilicata to Lazio, and Piedmont to Sicily.
"Light and movement allow us to achieve anything that is recognized as beautiful." This quote by Álvaro Siza Vieira, the universally acclaimed Portuguese architect, captures his philosophy. His work guides the relationship between built space and its surroundings, creating true works of art that prioritize nature. In furniture design, the approach can be similar. The intervention can indulge in the status of art, redefining meaning and joining new dialogues as if framed in a museum setting.
Driven by this provocation, Dell Anno presents an approach for its 2022 campaign that further strengthens its DNA of connecting architecture, art, and fashion. Titled Singular Dell Anno, the campaign draws a parallel with the sublime work of the Portuguese architect, paying tribute to his legacy of simplicity and architectural sophistication, which earned him global recognition and made him a major architectural influence today.

Winning proposals will be selected by a committee composed of Beam Center staff, youth, past project designers, and community members.
Building a city is an ongoing, additive act of creativity. Urban centers are continually being made and remade; they are palimpsests of the values, technologies, ingenuity, and aesthetics of times that precede ours and that were vital in shaping our present. The evolution of the city depends upon designers’ ability to find ways to preserve this past, while shaping a rich and resilient ecosystem for the future.
