Alexandre Goncalves Architecture is one of the 15 finalists among 101 competitors of New Newsstand Competition in São Paulo, which aims to select a new contemporary newsstand model for Largo da Batata region.
AGA’s proposal is based on Technology. All the design and technical solutions incorporated were developed due to the access to technology integrated with the products offered in the newsstand. The design of simple and enveloping lines seeks an aspect of homogeneity and formal sobriety in the exterior that is in direct contact with the city, contrasting with the dynamism of interior colors that is typical of the newsstands due to the material available. Around the technological base, New Newsstand offers internet access, with search programs for newsstand products where the user can view the covers of magazines and newspapers in a fast and interactive way, the Cultural Space with touch screen telling the story of São Paulo City, innovative and flexible internal furniture, and constructive solutions for thermal comfort, acoustic, safety and lighting.
The award event with the presence of 15 finalists will take place in São Paulo at Editora Abril’s headquarters building
