I was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil and have also lived in Luxembourg and Australia during high school before going back to Brazil for my undergraduate degree in Architecture and Urban Planning. I am very concerned with issues regarding city living, how we perceive, live and experience its beauties and ugliness. I wish to explore more about the boundaries that either segregate or unite people and also the physical, or even imaginary, boundaries between private and public spaces.
One of my previous works was an urban scheme that aspired to regenerate an extremely important avenue in Sao Paulo, mainly through substituting the existing bus lane, one of the main culprits of the avenue’s current appalling condition, with a light rail system and the new transport system would end up becoming an icon of the renovation, and by consequence change the fate of the avenue and its surroundings.
