Brasilia, a capital created ex nihilo in the centre of the
country in 1956, was a landmark in the history of town planning. Urban
planner Lucio Costa and architect Oscar Niemeyer intended that every
element – from the layout of the residential and administrative
districts (often compared to the shape of a bird in flight) to the
symmetry of the buildings themselves – should be in harmony with the
city’s overall design. The official buildings, in particular, are
innovative and imaginative.
A while ago I have received a postcard showing the Supreme Federal Court, and last year I've swapped/tagged for views of the Cathedral of Brasília. I really appreciate everyone using different stamps!
