Walls of air: Case studies - mapping urban data

Brazilian pavilion catalogue at biennale di architettura di venezia 2018

This case study proposes a series of 10 maps with the theme “Walls of Air” developed and designed for the Brazilian Pavilion Catalogue at the 2018 Venice Biennale.

This project was created as a complementation of the main exhibition maps as a way of visualising different forms of “walls” resulted from the Brazil’s urbanisation processes. Each cartography includes several existing databases and researches articulated together with the curatorial team of the Brazilian Pavilion.
