On 8 May, Noelia Monteiro gave a lecture on her work at Estudio Flume.
The studio, based in São Paulo, develops socio-environmental projects in remote areas of Brazil, aiming to protect traditional communities that preserve the Amazon rainforest. Monteiro’s work poses a key question: in the face of resource scarcity, how can we build with almost nothing? Solutions can be as simple as creating a shadow to define space. Exploring coverage as an initial protective measure, she will present case studies and research on new construction materials. In each case, the focus is on the learning process before and during construction, highlighting the spatialization of community needs and the sustainable use of resources.
This discussion is part of the public events related to our Groundwork project, exploring the evolving role of architects today.
