Bringing together 20 emblematic projects , the new book by Brazilian architect Arthur Casas , published by Rizzoli New York , will be available in the world's main bookstores from February 2023. “These are works that have my DNA. They say a lot about how I think architecture and design should be and what impact they can have on people’s lives,” explains the architect. The book is a celebration of the architect's iconic projects, showcasing their versatility across different types and scales: from public to private architectural spaces, and even urban revitalization projects. Arthur Casas is able to create complete environments that respond to the needs of his clients – and it is the clients themselves who help shape each project. “Designing a building or a chair is the same thing, I face the same difficulties and I apply the same principle which simply results in expressing the same aesthetic language”, he states. The photos in the book were taken by renowned photographers such as Fernando Guerra and Filippo Bamberghi , as well as Mauro Restiffe , some of the most celebrated contemporary Brazilian photographers.
