FAUUSP Hosts Launch of Königsberger Vannucchi [et al.] arquitetura

On 22 August, the School of Architecture and Urbanism at the University of São Paulo (FAUUSP) hosted the launch of the book Königsberger Vannucchi [et al.] arquitetura. In auditorium 810, students attended a screening of the film Traço Contínuo, which documents the production of the publication, and took part in a conversation with the firm’s founding partners, Jorge Königsberger and Gianfranco Vannucchi, alongside professors Agnaldo Farias and Luís Antônio Jorge, both of whom contributed essays to the book. The students engaged actively, showing particular interest in the real-world aspects and challenges faced by professionals over more than 50 years of practice.

“Architecture is something brilliant; you cannot help but be moved when you think that it all began as a blank sheet of paper.” — Gianfranco Vannucchi

“We face the challenge of doing something new, we struggle until it is complete, and then, when we are asked to do a project of that type again, it feels as though we have grown.” — Jorge Königsberger.
