The Practical Urbanity in Rocinha
Monday, March 3rd, 2008
In the second part of the Interview with the carioca architect Carlos Luis Toledo, who has his side office in the biggest favela called Rocinha, we are talking about the urban design in this favela. The favelados, the slum indwellers, are participating in the process of the new urbanisation there, since they can look back over a long tradition of making urbanity by their own.

The first part of the interview was posted on the 04fev2008. It gives an overview of the theoretical urbanisation of Rocinha.
