Palácio do Jaburu, Modernist vice presidential palace in Plano Piloto, Brazil
The Palácio do Jaburu spans 4,283 square meters with extensive balconies and sits alongside Lake Paranoá on a 190,000 square meter property in Brasília.
Architect Oscar Niemeyer designed this residential palace in 1973, and Vice President Adalberto Pereira dos Santos first occupied the residence in 1977.
Roberto Burle Marx created gardens that integrate native Cerrado trees with ornamental plants from different Brazilian regions, representing national botanical diversity.
The palace maintains regular security protocols and requires advance arrangements through official channels for any visits or professional interactions.
Unlike other governmental buildings in Brasília, this palace serves exclusively as a residence, with living spaces sized similarly to standard homes.

Oscar Niemeyer created buildings with geometric forms and concrete structures. His works include the Cathedral of Brasília, the Congress building with its distinctive towers, and the disk-shaped Contemporary Art Museum in Niterói. His structures define Brazilian modernism and extend to Europe, such as the Communist Party Headquarters in Paris and the Cultural Center in Asturias.
