IGUAÇU CATARATAS

More than a tourist attraction, or an important border reference, this project clearly aims to explore a five senses journey concerning the site story and traditions. A serpentine path (the first of shape, material and spacial relation, that the project intends to refer), tells the story of Tarob· and Naipi, along its silhouette.

Five stops, five senses explored each curve. From its section to its shelter form or the materials used - ìBambusa vulgaris, vittata or Brasilian Bambooî, the project ìItaipu Cataratasî - aims to serve not only as an interface or a bridge for this site, but also as a cultural guide that narrates, through architecture, the Caigangues Indiansí story.
