“Al escribir sobre arquitectura contemporánea, siempre existe el riesgo de una mayor contaminación personal y sentimental. Las arquitecturas del pasado, más distantes en el tiempo, permiten juicios menos influenciados por las prácticas o las inquietudes personales del investigador como arquitecto, lo que no sucede con los temas actuales, donde el vínculo con el presente puede ser muy intenso.”
SOFIA PINTO BASTO
“The theoretical and practical work of Egle Trincanato represents a nuanced variant of the strong ideology championed by the modernist movement.”
MARIA ANA CASTRO CALDAS DE ABOIM INGLEZ
“It is important to highlight the designation given to the project by the authors: Il Bagno. More than just “pools,” the Italian word Bagno refers to a single element, a singular action.”
DELIA IOANA SLONEANU
“For Ricardo Bak Gordon, the only place where ideas arise is inside our head. They are then elaborated and investigated using the many tools architects have at their disposal.”
“How is the world you live in? Or: How do you see the world? How do you bring everything together to shape your life? How do you manage your life to achieve what you want? What is your house like?“
VICTOR BEIRAMAR DINIZ
“Anahory’s universe thus represents a transatlantic meeting between modern perspectives that departs from Brazil Builds to arrive at the Verdes Anos.”
Duarte Belo
“We walk through the streets of any Portuguese city. There are buildings from various historical eras. We take photographs of space and time. It is not easy to interpret the reality.”
RICARDO CARVALHO & INÊS LOBO
“The city is the place where culture and technology, man and nature, come together to create a possibility for the common good. Nowadays, it is a site of potential and confrontation, of cohesion and protection, but also of instability and exclusion. What always prevails is its enormous potential and capacity for improvement.”
FILIPA RAMALHETE, MARGARIDA PEREIRA & GONÇALO ANTUNES
“Urbanisation and the accompanying intensification of economic extraction models, changes in family dynamics and social norms and widespread uncertainties surrounding housing, employment and lifestyle choices are global phenomena, particularly pronounced in several European countries.”
MARIA MATOS SILVA & ANA BEJA DA COSTA
“Over time, our relationship with the natural systems we are part of has changed. Individual and community experiences and memories have created collective memories, shaping different cultures, different ways of being and acting in the world in which we live.”
