In 2010, Haas&Hahn started designing models for painting a slum. After completing a model, they began work in Santa Marta the same year. In a time of one month, they recruited and trained 25 people to help them paint a square that spawned over 7000 square meter at the bottom of the favela. This included thirty-four surrounding houses, streets, and the interior of a popular samba studio. They started painting the slum in early 2010 and the project was completed the same year.
