"The project develops the theme of the implementation of the urban fabric of the village of Azenha. The identification and assimilation of the existing context as well as the comprehension of the everyday practices of the fragile community nourished the project. By applying a “light urbanism”, we laid the groundwork for a process of urban and economic re-definition of the village, in order to impact on the daily quality of the community life."
