Oscar Niemeyer’s vision of Brasília

Designed by Oscar Niemeyer and completed in 1970, the Cathedral of Brasília turns concrete into a radiating crown. Sixteen curving columns rise toward the sky, creating a civic and spiritual landmark that became one of the defining images of Brazil’s modern capital.

This miniature celebrates the building’s sense of lift and openness. It offers a compact way to bring the optimism, sculpture, and daring curves of Brazilian modernism into an everyday interior.

A sculptural focal point

Place it where its profile can be seen clearly—from a shelf edge, side table, or desk—so the architectural gesture remains the focus.
