Expansion of the Faculty of Law Library
PROJECT: 2020
BUILT (1st Phase)
COMPLETION DATE: 2022
ARCHITECTS: Ana Paula Pinheiro and Rui Barreiros Duarte
The aim of this project was to create a synthesis between Architecture, Sustainability, and Design, which would justify a simple overall design and minimize environmental impact. To achieve this, all phases of the building's life cycle were considered - design / construction / deconstruction.
The combination of the various specialties and the specificity of each is a fundamental technical contribution to optimizing the desired results.
The principle of minimal alterations followed by architecture was also adopted by the air conditioning system.
