Description
In the oriental extreme of Porto, a group of buildings tops up a roundabout that gives access to the riverside as well as the exit towards Gondomar, signalling the transformation that is wished for Freixo and Campanhã. This building inaugurated in 2009, responds to the place, is eclectic and takes on different characters, between the rehabilitation of old housing buildings that frame three extremely contemporary industrial volumes. Uniting them, a new terrace that takes advantage of the view over the Douro river and an outside green area. Projected by an architecture and engineering company with offices in the building itself, this work has an industrial technical language with a spatiality and organization divided in several lofts, with a public exhibition and event gallery at the entrance.
