São Paulo, 2013. This is the Matsubara Hotel — my usual stay whenever visiting the city, just a short walk from Avenida Paulista. I always found the geometry of its interior striking: the symmetry of the elevators, the reflections on the marble, and the light filtering through the glass ceiling.

Jockey Club de São Paulo. When I was young, my father used to bring me here to watch the horse races. I remember the sound of hooves echoing through the grandstands, the mix of excitement and elegance that filled the air. Standing here years later, I was struck by the architecture. Those sweeping concrete lines, still modern, still full of presence. The place feels quieter now, but the memories remain vivid.
