Pestana curve
The fabulous Pestana, as mentioned the other day. The architect Oscar Niemeyer (still alive at 103) said "My ambition has always been to reduce a building's support to a minimum. The more we diminish supporting structures, the more audacious and important the architecture is. That has been my life's work."
The building is immense, but both floats sexily and curves sinuously. Unlike, I have to say, the dumpy, totally-un-floating, adjoining casino building featured in yesterday's blip.
