It introduces dynamic aspects for urban, social, and economic regeneration, from the valued promenade to cultural attractions. Maintaining the historic building’s facades enhances Abrantes’ urban identity, serving as an integral representation of the collective experience of the historic area. The facade symbolizes history, nature symbolizes regeneration, and shared spaces signify growth and progression. The naturalistic design, integrating green areas, creates a public urban park that emphasizes walking areas, respecting existing urban boundaries. This envisions a strong pedestrian space qualification, valuing the intervention area as an entrance to the historic center. A new green square is proposed, connecting to surrounding accesses and creating a promenade between various proposed programs, including commercial areas, a multipurpose space, cinema, café & bookstore, and covered parking. The dematerialization of the built volume, concealed in the ground, is achieved through a “skin” of vegetation, including hedges, green roofs, climbing plants, shrubs, and subshrubs. The space can be experienced externally with pedestrian areas and internally with various collective-use spaces, creating dynamic experiences resulting from evolving utilization.

MBB – PUBLIC LIBRARY & TOY’S MUSEUMMBB – PUBLIC LIBRARY & TOY’S MUSEUMMBB – PUBLIC LIBRARY & TOY’S MUSEUM Previous slide Next slide Numbers & Facts Location: Angola City: Torres Vedras Client: Câmara Municipal de Torres Vedras Year: 2016 Area: 6960 m2 Status: Project Theme: Competition Program: Library & Museum Credits Architecture Team: Bruna Serralheiro, Catarina Pinto, Pedro Hébil, Sofia Travassos The new Toy Museum and City Library of Torres Vedras is intended to revitalize the historic centre of the city. As a result, a new elevated Green Square arises as  building underneath as well as several public paths and green spaces. Our proposal of a new street across the Green Square contributes for the building’s integration in the urban grid and insures a straight connection to the street of Celeiros de Santa Maria while framing the castle. Surrounded by history, the new green square and street improve the urban space and define a new building that reintroduces the site in the network of public buildings. Two towers rise from the ground and activate the surrounding public space, representing the duality of the program – Library and Museum. The towers communicate with other vertical elements of the area such as the castle, the churches and the chimneys of old factories, representing a new benchmark of the city of Torres Vedras.

The name “Enza”, means “World” in Kimbundu, and it is transported to the architecture concept since the building projects itself over the sea and the horizon.The volume is created as an exception moment, with oblique facades and angles that are intended to lead the eye to the sea. Commercial areas and a restaurants take place in the ground floor. In the upper floors there are twenty typologies of three bedrooms and three typologies of four bedrooms.All facades are ripped by angles of light in different directions giving place to large balconies, which extend the interior space to the outdoor.  The apartments are defined by the fluidity between spaces as well as the strong presence of the ocean and natural light. A selective choice of materials and constructive systems ensures comfort and serenity in the apartments.Besides a residential building, Enza Residence constitutes a new benchmark in the city of Luanda.

EIBSEE NATURE CENTER

EIBSEE NATURE CENTEREIBSEE NATURE CENTER Previous slide Next slide Numbers & Facts Location: Germany City:Eibsee Lake Client: Inature Competition Year: 2011 Area: 1.260 m2 Status: Project Theme: Competition Program:Research, Mixed use Credits Architecture Team: Bruna Serralheiro, João Marques, Simone Lopes The Eibsee Lake is located approximately 62 miles southwest of Munich and near the town of Grainau. The lake is 5.5 miles away from the town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and at the foot of the Zugspitze (Germany’s highest mountain). The lake has a surface elevation of 973 meters and its surface area is 177 hectares. Protected by the Bavarian State Ministry of the Environment, Public Health and Consumer Protection, both National Parks representing natural wilderness and a high diversity of the flora and fauna, the panorama around Eibsee Lake is breathtakingly beautiful and the crystal-clear water in the lake is amazing; the color of the lake varies from deep blue to turquoise. The surroundings of the lake are formed by a low mountain range landscape of which up to 95% is covered by forest. Besides extensive woodland areas, the national park offers mountain peaks with fascinating views of nearly endless forests which cover the mountain range representing the Bavarian-Bohemian border, mysterious bogs, crystal clear mountain streams and Lake Rachelsee, the park‘s only glacial lake.The fauna, which is characteristic of this region, is the result of a rather harsh, slightly continental climate with high snowfall in the winter, increased by large differences in altitude between 600 to 1,453 meters. Besides the eagle-owl, the ural owl and the raven, which have been reintroduced to this area, the otter, the capercaille, the hazel grouse, the Eurasian Pygmy Owl and the Three-toed Woodpecker belong to the indigenous fauna. The idea of ​​an Interpretation Center for this site comes from a concept that seeks to crystallise the surroundings, mimicking the different shades of the lake throughout the year, and minimising the presence of the building in the landscape.
A glass structure interspersed with each other in steel blades allows us, while carrying the surroundings into the interior, making it part of the building itself.
As a snow crystal, the building expands and it develops from its center, giving to each branch a different functional use, creating multiple frames on the landscape. In Nature we never see anything isolated, but everything in connection with something else which is before it, beside it, under it and over it.”Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Related projects Villaverde Read More TA Offices Read More Star Jewellery Read More Multiusos de Abrantes Read More Mukitixi Lodge Read More MBB – PUBLIC LIBRARY & TOY’S MUSEUM Read More Foxdale School Read More Eco House Read More Chalet Conde d’Almeida Araújo Read More Casa Vale Read More Casa Torre Read More Casa Gaia Read More Casa Domino Read More Casa Bravo Read More Casa Alta Read More Belleville Read More Bairro Loft Read More
