Studio Gang Architects, based in Chicago and New York, has been chosen by the US Department of State to design the new US Embassy compound in Brasilia, the Brazilian federal capital city, reports archdaily.com
Selected from a shortlist of six, the Jeanne Gang-led practice won the commission with their “strong and cohesive team approach with more than 20 years of collaborative experience executing projects with complex constraints at challenging sites,” says the report.
“The multi-building campus will be situated on the existing 4.8 hectares (12-acre) Chancery complex within the city’s “Diplomatic Sector” near the seat of the Brazilian government.
The project will rebuild the compound and includes: a Chancery, Marine Security Guard Residence, support facilities, perimeter security, and facilities for the Embassy community.”
