Alan Chu Designs São Jorge Lookout in Brazil

The São Jorge Lookout, an architectural endeavor by Alan Chu, spans 2,858 square meters and is anticipated to be finished in 2026. Curated by Susanna Moreira and coordinated by Cristina Chu, the team includes Ana Clara Cavalcante, Bruno Ottoni, and Pedro Reis, with Umbu Engenharia handling general construction. Photography is credited to Larissa Sad. The architects assert that architecture stems from the necessity to forge connections between people and their surroundings. More than mere shelter, it serves as a means to shape a space that guides the body, organizes experiences, and reveals often-overlooked relationships in everyday life. This philosophy underpins the creation of the São Jorge Lookout, which serves as a tourism and hospitality site.
