Abstract

The text explores the representation of architectural design within the exceptional context of Brazilian production. We use the design files of the Itamaraty and Justice Palaces, significant landmarks in the professional trajectory of the 1950s and 1960s generation, for this purpose. Weaving relationships with various approaches, the goal is to consider design and project practice in the contemporary context.
