Brasília not Rio II
On August 1, 2016 by armenIt seems that my eyes have found more color in Brasília. Yes it is a Handsome Gray Concrete on the outside but look at the Color on the inside ( scroll down )
Before I began my internet travels of the Brazilian Capital my minds eye saw it as the Capital of Brutalism as well, gray. modern concrete architecture with no room for color. Well I am learning that good color framed in simple gray lines are just > WOW.
Pictures below are of Santuário Dom Bosco. Named after a Priest in Turin that dreamed of a new City in this region of Brazil . Sanctuary design by architect Carlos Alberto Naves. I cannot find anything else on the Carlos please share with me and post here if you do.
