Both a travelogue and a look inside 20 local homes, At Home in Rio is an overview of the city's history, beaches, nightlife, parties, and Carioca lifestyle. Vibrant photographs capture Rio's samba beat, from the legendary Copacabana to a white-walled mountain aerie designed by Oscar Niemeyer to Carnavale's raucous parades, while the text gives an overview of the city's dynamic art, architecture, and sense of color.
