Completed in 964, this apartment building is structurally designed as a long narrow
plate with a -oot span supported by reinorced concrete walls on two sides. The
surace receiving the most intense solar radiation is protected by a sunscreen designed
exclusively or this project. The openings on the west acade, with their parallel con-
crete slats, uniy the space and the rhythm o the interior.

pleted in 958 in São Paulo, Brazil is
designed or a capacity o 000 specta-
tors. The structure is reinorced con-
crete with steel cables suspending themetal roo. The actual arena is in the
center o a long rectangular platorm
that serves as an esplanade and which
can accommodate complementary ac-
tivities in banqueting rooms and an in-
ner garden.

Paulo Mendes da Rocha designed his own home in Sao Paulo, completed in 960. It
was designed together with a second that is identical except or minor variations in the
oor plan. The single story design, resting on pillars, is embedded in a small hill where
it generates a dialogue with the gardens. One o his objectives was to maximize the useo preabricated and mass-produced reinorced concrete components. Above: a view o
the entrance staircase. Below: a view o the entrance oyer. Opposite page: (top) a hall;

The Brazilian Pavilion, designed or the 90 Expo in Osaka, Japan, was an architec-
tural study o the relationship between nature and construction. It consisted o a con-
crete and glass deck, resting lightly on the ground beneath. Mendes da Rocha chose to
modiy the site’s topography to create three points on which the platorm would rest.The movement is in the site, not the structure. The ourth support is provided by two
intersecting arches, and provides the only element that appears vertical, in contrast to
the broad horizontal extension o the deck. This support is calculated to resist great
degrees o horizontal stress given the high incidence o earthquakes in Japan.

The design or the Serra Dourada Stadium, built in 9, in Goiânia is radically di-
erent rom most sports arenas, which are generally conceived as closed entities. On
the contrary, this stadium is open to the city. The structure is balanced. The roo
overhangs 65 eet on each side, partially covering the cement bleachers and the gen-
eral access area, bars, locker rooms, ticket ofce and public support services. Sym-
metrically placed at either end o the stadium are the enclosed galleries providing o-
fces or the Soccer Federation as well as restaurants and lodgings or visiting athletes.

The chapel is located on a site near the Boa Vista Palace in the town o Campos de Jordão,
built as a winter residence o the Governor o São Paulo and now a fne art museum. It wasinitially decided that the chapel should be situated close to the existing palace, establish-
ing a dialogue with it. The chapel rests on one massive column and the religious spaces
ow around it. The limited use o dierent materials - concrete, glass and steel - add to
the building’s message o strength and simplicity. The two-story glass açade looks out
over the reecting pool to the Mantiquera mountain peaks in the distance. Because o a
change in the topography o the site, the chapel appears as a simple one-story building on
the esplanade as it aces the existing palace.

unobstructed as i in a museum. The two opposing concrete walls orming the ends o
the building house equipment and support services. By elevating the actual store, 900

Brazilian Museum o SculptureSão Paulo, Brazil, 988
Martha Thorne, executive director o the Pritzker Prize, describes the building: “As a result o
receiving frst prize in a 986 competition, architect Mendes da Rocha designed the Brazilian Museum
o Sculpture. The 5,000-square oot triangular site is located on a main thoroughare that links
the Jardin Europea residential district to the center o the city. Instead o creating a ree-standing
building resting on the site, the museum and landscape are treated as a whole. Large slabs createpartly underground internal spaces and also orm the
exterior plaza with its pools o water and esplanade.
The complexity o the design is realized in simple
straightorward orms and the use o plain concrete.
The great 9-oot long, 9-oot wide beam rames
the museum orming a loggia or porch. It is visible
indication o a museum building in dialogue with the
city.”

In the center o São Paulo, Mendes da Rocha
undertook the renovation and restructuring o
the public space. Vehicular trafc was reorga-
nized, and bus stops moved rom a small nearby
area to the 800-oot long overpass, Viaduct do
Cha. The square’s original paving was restored,
and the most striking element, a suspended roo
canopy, was added. The canopy successully
orms a dialogue with the cityscape, and, at the
same time, it is sympathetic to pedestrians who
use the plaza. It serves as a portal or the square
while it rames views in the opposite direction.
The canopy does not rest on the ground, but is
suspended rom an architrave.

The State Museum o São PauloSão Paulo, Brazil, 99
Originally the late nineteenth century structure designed by architect Ramos de Azevedo housed the
School o Arts and Crats. In 99, Mendes da Rocha began the design or a major renovation o this
classical, symmetrical building. He did not alter the exterior. On the inside, his interventions are clearand in juxtaposition with the original building. He
tackled major unctional problems including humidity,
the conusing organization o the galleries, and the
need or structural reinorcements and new spaces or
museum activities. The central and side courtyards
were given new metal ramed glass roos. The internal
window openings were maintained, but stripped o
their rames to provide views o the courtyards. At
ground level, the central courtyard became a slightly
sunken auditorium to accommodate 40 people. Metalcatwalks traverse the side courtyards and connect the
galleries at the upper levels.

stalled to connect old internal patio win-dows.

Residence or Mario MasettiCava Estate, Cabreuva, SP, Brazil, 995
The modest house that the architect
designed in Cabreuva, a small town
northwest o São Paulo, has a eelo discovery as one passes through
its simple orms. Mendes da Rocha
has said, “...this house is not a model,
but a multiaceted event in the land-
scape. It is a suite o little surprises.”
The regular geometry o the house is
in contrast to the more ree-orm o
the pool. On the interior, the curved
stone wall is in juxtaposition with thelinear concrete walls.

Known as “poupatempo” or “time
saver,” the Center brings together,
under one roo, many governmentservices, such as post ofce, motor
vehicle center, utility bill payments
booths, police station, etc. Located
in the Itaquera district on the
periphery o São Paulo along side a
subway station, it is a single building
,000 eet long. In some ways it is
more like a suspension bridge. It
is raised o the ground by pairs
o central pillars that support the
cantilevered concrete cross beams,
which in turn support a secondary
structure. The large scale trusses o
the roo play a structural role and
also orm the inclined açade. It is
wider at the rooine than the base,
which is not only a geometrically
striking orm, but also protects the
building rom the sun without theneed or an additional canopy.
