My research is focused on the traditional apartments of Brasília, Brasil's modernist capital. I'm intersted in understanding the transformations of the domestic space along time.
Dear Pedro, I approached a similiar question on my sociological analysis of Lisbon's Olivais-Sul, the city's first modernist "new town in town". In the book and in the book chapter you will find an account on how the architects followed, analysed and reflexively approached the 'pionners'' - first estate's inhabitants - transformations on the domestic space. Best wishes, João Pedro
