Cover of the book Avenida Brasil, Metropolitan Highway: Toward a Contemporary Statute of Infrastructural Space
On Saturday, April 5, the Eiffel bookstore will host the launch of the book Avenida Brasil rodovia metropolitana. Por um estatuto contemporâneo do espaço infraestrutural. Winner of the 2023 IAB National Award, the book advocates for the concept of the "metropolitan highway." Based on a case study of the urban segment of the BR-101 highway in Rio de Janeiro, the work explores the road far beyond the notion of mobility, positioning it as a key space for rethinking design and urban planning in Brazilian metropolises and the Global South. Featuring a rich and extensive iconography, the book includes a Morphological Atlas of Avenida Brasil. This visualization enables the proposal of "design logics between highway and territory" as catalysts for the relationships and spatialities implicit in the interface between infrastructure and human occupation. The event will feature a conversation between the author, Pedro de Moraes, and Professor Guilherme Lassance, author of the book In-formal. Infraestrutura urbana revisitada, which will also be launched at the event. The discussion will be moderated by architect and urban planner Pedro Sales, a professor at Escola da Cidade.
We invite you to the book launch of IN-FORMAL: Urban Infrastructure Revisited. The event will take place in São Paulo on April 5, 2025, at Livraria Eiffel at 11:00 AM. The event will feature the authors: Professor and Director of FAU UFRJ Guilherme Lassance, along with students Lucas Freitas, Beatriz Gomes, and Nicholas Manso. The event is open to the public and will be moderated by local professors.
