Caminho de Oscar Niemeyer, Niterói Brazil

 

The “Niemeyer Path” by Oscar Niemeyer stands close to his Niterói Contemporary Art Museum and the Juscelino Kubitschek.The facility inludes the domed Memorial Roberto Silveira, which acts as a digital library. Closer to the coastline, the theater has yellow tile walls and a flowing white roof. Accessed by a spectacular ramp, the people can congregate under the building in a large plaza before entering.

It is a “very festive place” says Neimeyer. The recently completed structure is an eye-widening addition to this cultural and architectural vein in South America.
