Congresso Nacional do Brasil
The two towers of the National Congress building rise symmetrically against the sky, their white facades gleaming in the Brasília sunlight. Constructed from concrete and glass, the stark geometric forms house the chambers of Brazil's bicameral legislature. The distinctive hyperboloid roofs of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies meet above a sweeping plaza where security barriers now stand in response to recent tensions.
