The main goal of this dissertation is to investigate the relation between the architectural production of Art Deco affiliation and João Pessoa urban network inception and expansion process in the years 1932-1955, based on the link between the architecture and city. This relation analysis is enhanced when it is understood that some innovations are only possible, and in some cases mandatory, if the place enables the building deployment. The research scope was delimited in seven areas considering the city occupied area until the beginning of 1950´s, developing seventeen setorial maps from the researched excerpts based on actual pictures from buildings under research, highlighting the reformed urban areas in the first half of the twentieth century. The Art Deco architectural manifestations are analyzed from the definition of six key criteria determining the architecture specifications and its relation with the city.
