Neogama BBH was elected Global Advertising Network of the Year by Advertising Age. A global network with only 6 offices around the globe, one of them in SP.
Looking at the office building, I find they deserve a price for architecture as well. Architects André Vainer e Guilherme Paoliello, Pic: Advertisement.

Brazilian Architecture and Interior Design

Vogue_brasil_1 I must confess today that I was a very spoiled child in terms of growing up amongst richest media at home. Newspapers and magazines my parents subscribed to and thousands of precious books in my surroundings. I was literally "devouring" Schoener Wohnen, Haeuser, Decoration, Vogue Decoration and later Living at Home... everything about Architecture and Interior Design when we were renovating our own house and me at the same time dreaming of my own "Waterfalls" one day (thanks to Art History Class in the US and the Bible of "Janson"). And everytime I spotted an impressive house when travelling I was wondering: what does the interior like behind that fassade? How do people live and how is their home decorated?
Those thoughts spin around my mind especially here in Brazil when walking down the streets or going on a boat tour in Angra. If you feel the same, go and buy the latest copy of CASA VOGUE Brasil. Besides a good overview of Brazilian architects and interior designers,  I bet you will start dreaming as well. And I swear, had a really hard time selecting a pic for this post, instead of showing my favourite, I give you the cover of the magazine so you easily find it.

Something for your eye... and soul!

Oscarniemeyer If you plan to come over to Brazil you may not want to miss some architectural highlights:
Last year the new auditorium by Oscar Niemeyer was opened in São Paulo´s Ibirapuera Park. The 800-seat concert hall, which looks like a white concrete wedge with an undulating red tongue poking out of its front, closes the final chapter of the masterplan for Ibirapuera Park, dreamt up by the 97-year-old Niemeyer and the late Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx in 1955.

Warapuru Looking for a hotel in Brazil which impresses you by its architecture and interior design? Unfortunately hard to find. But Portuguese hotelier João Vaz Guedes opened and wonderful new beach resort called Warapuru in Itacaré, in Bahia.
He spotted a Unesco World Heritage site, a secluded cove of Engenhoca, on a 30km stretch of Bahian coastline beneath mountainous terrain carpeted with virgin tropical rainforest. Then he commissioned Anouska Hempel and her team of architects, headed up by Australian Russell Jones, to create a hotel so glamorous it would resemble a Bond film. You can stay in the hotel or acquire one of the villas in the resort.
