There is an Amazonian architecture made up of many different versions that represent specific histories, cultures, and different peoples. The relationship between native populations and contemporary architectural culture reflects the complexity of the processes of colonization, integration, and conflict that run through the history of the Amazon. The most significant architectural story, able to interpret the colonial dimension in a dialectical way, is due to Severiano Porto who, in 1966, settled in Manaus and remained there for thirty-six years.

Abstract

There is an Amazonian architecture made up of many different versions that represent specific histories, cultures, and different peoples. The relationship between native populations and contemporary architectural culture reflects the complexity of the processes of colonization, integration, and conflict that run through the history of the Amazon. The most significant architectural story, able to interpret the colonial dimension in a dialectical way, is due to Severiano Porto who, in 1966, settled in Manaus and remained there for thirty-six years.
