The school of architecture at SENAC, Sao Paulo, organized Extremes, a seminar whose goal is “to discuss the role of the architect in the face of demands imposed by emergencies and exceptions in large cities, such as occupation of risk areas, prevention and reaction to natural disasters, and situations arising from social problems and reconstruction of affected areas, among others.” The seminar includes presentations by Jorge Mario Jauregui Architects (Atelier Metropolitano, Rio de Janeiro), Lars Krückeberg (Graft Lab, Berlin), Marcos Boldarini (Boldarini Arquitetura e Urbanismo, Sao Paulo), and Carlos Teixeira (Vazio S/A).
