More about the book

At the dawn of the 20th century, a burgeoning sense of national identity in Brazil catalyzed the emergence of an authentic architectural style known as the "Neocolonial Style." This development unfolded amid a complex landscape of conservative and progressive ideologies, all converging on the notion that modernity equated to nationalism. The Neocolonial movement, marked by its nationalist and preservationist aspirations, ultimately faced challenges from the rise of modern architecture, leading to an ambiguous legacy in Brazilian cultural history.
