Project

A Viewpoint: A Continuous Circuit

April 5, 2010

Project by Laura Cano Benito.

The project is located in Alfama, one of the oldest areas of the city of Lisbon. The project proposes a solution to both an urban and a functional problem using the principles that guide the architectural process of building: a building is the joint of a condition given by the context, a viewpoint, and, at the same time, a continuous circuit.
