Lina Bo Bardi
SESC Pompeia
1977-1986


“The precariousness of the means and the prevailing amateur building techniques mean that in much of South American architecture, the presence of marks mixed with traces of hand tools is inevitable. Seen this way, a building is not very different from a sandcastle or a mud pie.

Pompeia spaces in Sao Paulo, designed for citizens to play and meeting, are full of these marks; in this case, you left by workmen filled with ambition and generosity" Lina Bo Bardi
