  1. How nice to see the work of one of my fave architects displayed in your virtual space. I was born in Brasilia and I got his modern lines under my skin. Love his work.

    I wonder if I could link your post on my blog? Pls, let me know.

    Hugs,

    Fernando.

    Gorgeous architecture, although a couple of these pictures look like they could be McDonalds restaurants of the future.
