The name Catetinho comes from the then official residence of the president, the Catete Palace. Oscar Niemeyer's project, was built in just 10 days, in November 1956. It is a simple building, made of wood, and known as "Palácio de Tábuas" ("Planks Palace").[1]
It was planned without comfort or official honours, so that the President didn't distance himself from the workers, who lived in shacks and tents.[2]
