- Summary:
- The first full-scale bilingual publication celebrating the significant career of the pioneering modern Brazilian designer and architect José Zanine Caldas.One of the most important figures in Brazilian material culture, José Zanine Caldas (1919 2001) left behind a diverse legacy in architecture, design, and art. His oeuvre includes maquettes built for architecture, industrial and handcrafted furniture, sculpture, landscaping and floriculture, low-income and elite housing designs, and research on the use and reuse of Brazilian woods. Much of Caldasœs aesthetic was based on his dialogue with vernacular craft and its construction practices, which stemmed in part from his lack of a traditional education.
