FLOW ARCHITECTURE

ARCHITECTURE Se a reta é o caminho mais curto entre dois pontos, a curva é o que faz o concreto buscar o infinito. De um traço nasce a arquitetura. E quando ele é bonito e cria surpresa, ela pode atingir, sendo bem conduzida, o nível superior de uma obra de arte. Oscar Niemeyer

Manshiyat Naser is a ward of Cairo, Egypt, famous for its “Garbage City” settlement. This slum is home to Cairo’s largest concentration of Zabbaleen people — a community of 50,000-70,000 who support themselves by collecting trash door-to-door throughout the city. The Zabbaleen recycle up to 80% of the waste they collect, while most Western garbage collecting companies only recycle about one-quarter of the waste they collect.

Remembering Paulo Mendes da Rocha (October 25, 1928 - May 23, 2021)

Paulo Mendes da Rocha, one of the world’s last great modernists, as well as one of his country’s most important architects to-date, has passed in Brazil at the age of 92. 

Blending beautiful, powerful architectural forms while looking at issues of social engagement, Paulo Mendes da Rocha turned his hand to anything from private housing, large-scale, public architecture and furniture; always with a profound sense of materiality, and a flair for creating architecture that is both functional and emotive, defined by bold yet sensitive moves.

“Lambeth Towers”, Lambeth Road, London, UK [1964-1972] _ Architect: George Finch [for Lambeth Borough Council]  _ Photos by Spyros Kaprinis [24.03.2022].

“Working under Lambeth’s chief architect and planner Ted Hollamby, George Finch pioneered an architecture that created buildings with a mix of social provision. Lambeth Towers was a microcosm of the 1960s Welfare State. It provided affordable, high quality housing, medical facilities and a lunch club for the elderly.Today the building survives as a reminder of the inclusive, benevolent society that has been dismantled over the last 30 years.”
