Casa do Baile/ Pampulha

            Najplodonosnija faza u  projektantskom opusu Niemeyer-a,   koja se ogleda u realizovanim  značajnim javnim objektima u  Braziliji, nije bio njegov prvi veliki slučajni posao koji je dobio po službenoj dužnosti .Da bi za tako značajne objekte bio pozvan da ih kao arhitekta i osmisli, bilo je potrebno da se mladi Oscar pokaže na delu prilikom poziva da projektuje  pet objekata ( casino, ekskluzivni club, sala za igranje , crkva i hotel ) na obali veštačkog jezera u Pampulha-e , koje mu je u tom trenutku obavljajući funkciju gradonačelnika Belo Horizontea, naručio upravo Kubitschek (predsednikom Brazila u vreme izgradnje novog glavnog grada Brazila - Brazilije).

Set naručenih projekata, predstavljao je celinu, čiju sinteznu nit  pre svega karakterišu oblici i potezi, koji uprkos njegovoj mladosti i ne velikom iskustvu vodjenim pre svega velikim talentom i ogromnom količinom kreativnog naboja , projektuje uspešno i osobeno u takvom obimu, da mu je upravo ta  saradnja,  kasnije omogućila preuzmanje  najznačajnije  uloge u njegovom životu - uloge glavnog arhitekte Brazila.

Tandem Niemeyer-Kubitschek u Belo Horizonteu, kreće u svoje prve osvajačke pohode ka ispisivanju najznačajnijih stranica istorije arhitekture 20.veka.

The most fruitful stage in Niemeyer's designing opus, which is reflected in realized significant public buildings in Brasilia, for sure  was not his first project on the one of the mayor public scene in the world.One of his first chance was in fact, an invitations to design five facilities (casino, an exclusive club, dancing hall, a church and a hotel) on the banks of the artificial lake of Pampulha that Kubitschek in that time mayor of Belo Horizonte, later president of Brazil during the construction of the new capital of Brazil - Brasilia was intend to build.

A set of project - a five omnibus  architectural concepts , whose synthetic filament was primarily characterized by forms and moves, despite his youth and lack of experience, was a five pieces of huge amount of creative energy,successful projects that has been an excellence chance for him to extented his cooperation with Kubitschek, who has been in position to give him  the highest role in his life - the role of the main architects of Brazil.

Duo Kubitschek - Niemeyer in Belo Horizonte, moving into their first conquests to the writing of the most important pages in the history of 20th century architecture.

Svaki početak u karijeri beleži upravo ono što Vi suštinski i jeste.

Lični stvaralački senzibilitet, projektovan u oblike koji nastaju potezima upravo Vaše olovke (miša), postaju obeležje Vašeg stila, koji se može pročitati u svemu onome što će te kasnije stvarati, ne povezujući nikada svesno prve korake sa svim što kasnije sledi .Oscarova "kriva" linija  nije slučajno prisutna u njegovim radovima u Pampulji .Ona je tu zbog vode ,talasa ali i oblina  devojaka koje je video na podijumima klubova u tom ili nekom drugom gradu. Ženski torzo  je u retkim intervjuima koje je davao pominjao kao poseban vid inspiracije za stvaranje svojih projekata.

The first steps in the career record for exactly what you essentially are. Personal creative sensibilities, designed in forms that occur exactly as your pen strokes on paper (mouse on screen ) become the hallmark of your style, which can be easilly read in all that you will create later, never consciously linking yours first steps with all that follows later. Oscar " radial " line is not accidentally present in his works in Pampula. Maybe it is there because of the water and nature , or maybe as a simbol of the  girls bodies  that he could seen on stage at the clubs in that, or some other city such as Rio , what he was always  love to mentioned as the main inspiration simbol for the creation for his  projects. 

Krug iz kojeg izlazi pozitivna  energija koja se kreće ka prirodi ,vodenoj površini koja ga kao savršeni postament prihvata za gosta .Naizgled komplikovan i bez potrebe razudjen objekat , u stvari predstavlja krajnje sveden i konkretan oblik muške polne ćelije-spertmatozoida, u okruženju koje i jeste njen prirodni ambijent -vodi.

Sala za igranje na malom ostrvu,  "igra" na vodenim talasima.

Delo majstora koji svoj početak "igranja" sa oblicima, počinje malom ali jako ubedljivo ekspresivno - senzibilnom strukturom."Točak" Oscarov-ske arhitekture počeo je da se kotrlja.

Circle from which the positive energy that moves towards nature, the water surface,which he accepts as a perfect pedestal for the guest. Seemingly complicated and for the first look  without reasons jagged object, is in fact a highly reduced and the specific form of male sex cells-spertmatozoida in the environment and is its natural environment - water.Dance hall as a small island, plays on water waves.Work of a master who is just starting to  "play" with the forms, small but very convincing expressive - sensible structure . "Wheel" of the Oscar's architecture began to roll.

Ritam muzike iz enterijera sale za ples, prenosi se na otvoreni prostor pored vode... Šetnja zaljubljenog para "palubom" broda sa cvetovima za dragu na dohvat ruke , ispunjava svu svrhu kreiranja objekta sa asocijacijom na kretanje muške jajne ćelije koja novi život može udahnuti, upravo nadahnuta ambijentom kreiranom od strane Niemeyer-a . 

Scenografija koju na početku svoje karijere stvaraju ruke budućeg majstora arhitekture  ali očito i velikog poznavaoca socijalnih interakcija, bila je za njega verovatno posao iz snova  koji je odsanjao tako, da i danas možemo uživati u pogledima upućenih ka ovom  pre svega sa svojom simbolikom u osnovi jedinstvenom objektu .

Rhythm of the music from the dance hall interior fly to an open area near the water ...
Couple of lovers walk in love on the "deck" of the boat with flowers for a sweetheart at your fingertips fulfills all the purposes of creating an object with an association with the movement of the sperm cells that could breathe a new life, just inspired by the ambience created by Niemeyer's.Scenography designed in the early-stage of his working years, but a master piece of an architect and in the same time  of an  great connoisseur of social interaction, it was probably for him a dream job that he live in reality.Dream  in which we could enjoy,  by focusing the views in a direction of his architecture as a symbol of nature with direct association on a fertility .
