Tropical Minimalism

Lina Bo Bardi is my favorite Architect. She has a modernist aesthetic, liked making beautiful chairs and amoeba-shaped windows punctured in concrete walls. 

​

Thinking about how the tropical look is valued today, with the mango pinks and dark greens, I thought about making a surreal stage for Lina's chair, now rendered in copper (not comfortable, but valued by interior design trends). I built layers of walls cut in a topographic pattern and punctured one of Lina's windows in one of them. I played a bit with lighting and came up with this stage for Lina and I, both tropical minimal souls.
