Proposed renovation
Manaca Waldorf Primary School LOCATION Sao Paulo, Brazil STATUS Completed ROLE Designer and contract manager
SCOPE
Stage 1 Two new classrooms and a toilet. Stage 2 Articulation of new site, 5 new classrooms, multiuse room, library, toilets and garden.
Stage one was an extension of the primary school. Due to site constraints, the extension was designed over another class room using an independent structure over the existent building. The stage two, one year after the first one, has been completed on a adjoined site and involved a bigger team of engenners, designers, builder, and a school’s comittee due to its scale. Both constructions have been completed during the 3 months of the school holidays one year apart. Because of the very tight budget the construction and materials selected were simple, efficient and easy to maintain. The outcome is a honest and loved school.

Devil’s Cave management plan LOCATION Eldorado, Brazil STATUS Academic research - Master of architecture
The human story cannot be told without referring it to the caves. The most rudimentary expression of architecture, caves were the first human shelter and symbolic places which inspires curiosity in search for adventure, mystery and beauty.
ROLE Researcher at the University of Sao Paulo
Caves are fragile environments in which the time scale exceeds largely our existence and preserve significant traces of Earth’s history and our own history.
SCOPE
The cultural, environmental and scientific importance of caves make them unique spaces for environmental education, research and recreation. However, increased public use without planning has caused negative impacts to this unique environment, which, when destroyed, it is lost forever.
The role of architecture in the public use of caves
AWARDS
- Paper presented at the 17th International Congress of Speleology in Sydney 2017 - Thesis selected by Sao Paulo State Environmental Department as reference to new projects on natural parks.
This research proposes a conceptual and methodological basis to subsidise strategies for architecture in the public use of caves and karst, based on research by design and having Devil’s Cave as case study.
