Sao Paulo Architecture

Here's a great webpage profiling some of the amazing architecture of Sao Paulo:

"From Oscar Niemeyer’s fiery Auditório Ibirapuera and powerful Memorial da America Latina to Lina Bo Bardi’s “art box” MASP, some of São Paulo’s most popular sites offer awe-inspiring examples of modern architecture. But the city’s passion for naked steel and concrete minimalism certainly doesn’t end there: in this guide, we’ve strayed from the tourist-beaten path to seek out the buildings locals love best.

These gems may not exactly be hidden, but they glitter all the same. All are in some way connected to the “Escola Paulista”, a highly influential generation of architects who grew up amid military dictatorship and rebellious communist influences, then revolted in the late 1960s, established themselves in the 1970s and 1980s, and finally inspired a another design wave at the dawn of the new century.

We’ll take you from their earliest influences right up to today—and right to the complex heart of São Paulo’s vibrant architectural scene."
