(mentor) Degree granting institution Delft University of Technology Programme Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences Project AR2A011 Date 2022-04-14 Abstract Brasília is the conveyor of both architectural and political discourses. Its construction symbolized the possession of the vast and unexplored hinterland, but moreover it was built to inaugurate a new moment in Brazilian history. The thesis aims to investigate on the intersecting points of these discourses, describing and identifying elements in Lucio Costa's winning proposal which dialogue with the utopia both the architects (Lucio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer) and Juscelino Kubitschek, Brazil's president at the time, had envisioned for Brasília.
