Erik Van Der Weijde: Superquadra Hardcover – January 1, 2010

by Erik Van Der Weijde (Author)
Brasilia is best known for the grandeur of its Monumental Axis. It connects two wings with the so-called Residential Axis. This is a twelve kilometre expressway lined with large residential blocks, which are named Superquadras. All Superquadras have a distinct configuration, with an average of eleven residential buildings raised on pilotis, large greenbelts and regular rows of trees alongside the entire periphery of the Superquadras.

This book documents many of these buildings and shows its specific architectural rhythm.
