Cultural Center & Housing _ Estrela
Collaboration_Miguel Feijóo
The proposed intervention is the result of a very challenging work that was to intervene in the surroundings of a national monument. The Basilica da Estrela is an important landmark in Lisbon and a determining factor for the configuration of the urban network in this area. The proposed program was quite rich from its housing, cultural and commercial plan. Our idea was to combine this whole program with a strong intention of creating a big "void" of public space around the monument and at the same time to have an intervention that did not stand out since the configuration of buildings to their materiality. In this way our "line" marks the passage of this great liberated public space that is the continuation of the Jardim da Estrela and transports us to the new complex that houses this whole program without ever forgetting the same intention of public spaces and permeability between the different buildings and programs.
