Art, harmony, and construction: a new architecture book lists 16 steps to create spectacular buildings. From aesthetic reflections to detail-rich projects, the work is a theoretical-practical manual being launched in Curitiba and São Paulo. Architecture happens at the intersection of aesthetics and construction; in the delicate balance between art and engineering. Every architectural decision reflects a specific period, a sense of belonging, and a constant invitation to go beyond what already exists.
The goal of these conversations is to exchange experiences, discuss, and reflect on contemporary architecture and construction, while broadening critical perspectives. The aim is to discuss architecture in a critical, provocative, and proactive way, exploring processes, technologies, and innovations.
