The architect I decided to cover is Christian Portzamparc because I liked how unique all his projects were from each other. This building is Cidade Das Artes which is a theatre in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Construction started in 2003 but the building wasn’t officially inaugurated until 2013. I personally enjoy the outer design of the theatre with the web-like pillars and incorporation of sharp edges and curves. I also like how the building is partially surrounded by water. Although the building started construction in 2003, the building is still very modern even in today’s standards. It is the largest modern concert hall in South America.
