Design and build for Brazil in Antarctica. In certain places on the planet, nature sometimes creates adverse conditions for the human body. In these places, thinking about a building is almost like building a garment, an artifact that protects and comforts. This is a technological performance problem, but it must be combined with aesthetics. Promoting the feeling of protection for human beings is more than working on the notions of comfort and safety, it is also working on spaces in their symbolic and perceptual dimensions. A shelter, a safe place. Brazil's new home in Antarctica. A place of protection and gathering of people for the production of scientific knowledge. Thus, the task of designing the new Comandante Ferraz Antarctic Station is envisaged.
