BUCCI, Ángelo  y  MEIRELLES DE FARIA, João Paulo. Edificio en Cassarate, Lugano, Suiza: SPBR arquitetos - Ángelo Bucci, João Paulo Meirelles de Faria, 2011. ARQ (Santiago) [online]. 2011, n.78, pp.20-23. ISSN 0717-6996.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0717-69962011000200004.

Structural engineering and Brazilian architecture have proved their close relationship: cantilevers and large spans provide open, airy spaces. Designed from São Paulo to be built in Switzerland, this building proposes a ground floor plan entirely handed over to the street, as a shortcut and meeting space for its residents and office workers.

Palabras clave : architecture-Brazil; collective housing; urban housing; apartments.
