Polish Brazilian Jorge Zalszupin may be better kno Polish Brazilian Jorge Zalszupin may be better known internationally for his furniture, favoured by Niemeyer, but he was just as confident and bold when it came to changing the landscape of central São Paulo. This is Avenida Paulista, and Torre Paulista stands out immediately, with its distinctive bold curved form. Completed in 1974 as Edifício Aquarius, it completely captured a period when São Paulo wanted to define it self as a modern outward facing city. Now, it looks battered or weathered dependant on your opinion. Zakszupin had not intended it to be a standard office building, its proportions are unusual: ‘only 20 metres across the front, yet extending almost 120 metres through the block, with access from both Avenida Paulista and Alameda Santos’ Image with thanks to @jonblanthorn
Listed as a Monument Historique in 2007, Villa San Listed as a Monument Historique in 2007, Villa Santo Sospir in Cap-Ferrat might well have been renamed Villa Jean Cocteau. Home to Francine Weisweiller, who, if she had not been real would have been created for a book about the French jet set. She spent most of her life at the epi centre of an extraordinary cultural circle, with Yves Saint Laurent giving her clothes to her mother in law from her marriage to Alex Weisweiller being part of the family that not only bankrolled the Wright Brothers in their early flying days but also brought petrol pumps to France such was their influence in the oil industry. However the dream to build the villa was born out of a desperation to survive the Second World War. In 1941, the family, who were Jewish, fled and went into hiding in Pau. Francine’s husband Alec Weisweiller was well established on mother remained in Antibes, was arrested, and deported to Auschwitz. While in hiding, Alex told his daughter: “If we survive, I’ll buy you a house.” Santo Sospir was the fulfilment of that promise, In 1950, Jean Cocteau arrived after filming Les Enfants Terribles and stayed … and stayed. He began drawing directly onto the villa’s white walls figures, symbols, mythologies and what he called “tattooing” the house., he explained “I didn’t dress the walls, I drew on their skin.” Today the house is officially protected.
