The Copan Building, designed by Oscar Niemeyer and completed in 1966, is an icon of modernist architecture in São Paulo. With 38 floors and a curvilinear facade, the building stands out for its undulating shape. Its fire escape is particularly notable for following the curves of the building, integrating with the overall design and combining functionality with aesthetics, exemplifying Niemeyer's innovative approach to transforming utilitarian elements into artistic parts of architecture.
