Light

 Niemeyer always uses light the right way, to highligh the important and making everything look so stylish.

 This fist photo that I selected is the Palácio da Alvorada, witch is the official residence of the President of Brazil. It is located in the national capital of Brasilia, on a peninsula at the margins of Paranoa Lake. The building was designed by Oscar Niemeyer and built between 1957 and 1958 in the modernist style. It has been the residence of every Brazilian president since Juscelino Kubitschek. The building is listed as a National Historic Heritage Site.  The use of light here is amazing, he used accent lighting to highligh the great concrete wall detail and he also used the lake to create a refexion of the light in the wall giving an effect of largeness and monumentalisim  

This next photo is a public space called The Niemeyer square, is located in the University of Informatics Science in Cuba. I think lighting in a public place is really difficult to achieve, obviously at night time, because it's really easy to feel overwhelmed or kind of scared at a public place at night a public place at night if it's dark and the light was the work of making it cozy and safe, also making it pop out of the city. I like this picture because it shows the great work of light, the way it's located in the trees and creates a symmetrical line, and also there's a central light that highlights the sculpture
