"Living in residences designed by renowned modern architects is a dream sought after by many. Projects that have become iconic are major attractions for new residents who value both the authorial signature and history of the building, as well as the innovative architectural solutions that have contributed to the prominence of such projects. As for the work of Oscar Niemeyer, fluidity and flexibility may best express his plans and typologies."
"These features provide great potential for the architects working on renovations within these buildings. São Paulo's Copan Building is a prime example: its 1160 units, spread over six blocks, vary from 25m² studio apartments to larger units of over 150m². Niemeyer's extensive portfolio includes other residential landmarks in São Paulo - like the Montreal, California, and Eiffel buildings - plus others in Belo Horizonte and Brasília, even reaching as far as Berlin with the Interbau Apartment House."
