Idea for a box
Inspired in the movement of contemporary dance and music, an object was designed to fit the standard form of a box (2). The key idea is to find the shape of every instance on a spiral movement.
A school for a place
In this second year project, a dancing school is sketched in a way that formally compromises itself with the object’s structural key. The architectural shape of the school is competing with the church Igreja da Memória, which is is right in front of it (4). Nevertheless, the school tries to fit in the context of the surroundings (8) — the Ajuda neighborhood, in Lisbon.
