Taking a brief hiatus to recover from surgery that removed several gallstones and an intestinal tumor, Niemeyer will begin working on a collection of buildings in Niteroi, a suburb of Rio De Janeiro, according to the Associated Press.
Niemeyer is considered one of the most important modern architects whose contributions include the UNesco World Heritage city of Brasilia, Rio''s Sambadrome and the United Nations building in New York.
"I needed to keep busy," Niemayer tells the international press on his recovery and return to design, "keep in touch with friends, maintain my rhythm of life."
