Jose Collection by Mauricio Arruda

In the land that has provided the world with Bossa Nova and the ever cultural attribution given to Ipanema, Brazil also provides insight to some of the most interesting social and urban landscapes in the world. The urban centers of Brazil - Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro- are rich in layers, language, textures, inspiration and creative opportunities. With plenty of people and a thriving center for cultural transactions, it takes a creative mind to build and design order out of this sometimes, chaotic urban fabric. Mauricio Arruda, a Brazilian architect based in Sao Paulo has been able to share with out readers how he leveraged such complexity.
