A space where the physical boundaries of the site are diluted in the geometry of the shape
and permeability zones created by the balance sheet, reinforcing the desired fluidity of the
surrounding urban space.
The building looks like a massive form, modeled on the basis of foreign relations to
enhance, easily seized at car speed and able to stimulate the curiosity of passersby, in a
constant game of seduction between show and hide.
The interior is thought of as a kind of continuous functional spiral around a huge central
void, exploring an idea of transparency, diluted in a lacy structure (suggesting the branches

constant invitation to the movement and the discovery of spaces that are visible.

so there are like 20 diagrams to essentially just say that there is a funky shape with another funky
shape that is booleaned out of it that gets pulled to allow traffic to go under it? bit overkill..

I dont wanna be mean, but this is bad. Really bad! And its when you see a real architecture
masterpiece like Sizas swimming pools (just scroll down a bit) that you realise how bad this project is.
A bunch of (pretentiously) cool diagrams + a few sexy renders " good architecture!
Speceworkers please go away. Dont ruin the Earth! Its the only one weve got.

Im proud to see this magnificent project, which was accompanied by me since his birth, year 2009.
Today I see it represented here.
Congratulations, Spaceworkers!
Unfortunately the comments posted here, do not have the height and elegance of the project.
Dont hurry, one day they will look for you, to a training.

Portuguese architecture usually its very good, but this exportation from Zaha mixed with Big, its
shaming, and very poor!
In fact that project cant be named architectural project is only renderings, without any soul.

diagramasQuanto ao projecto bom nao ver mais do mesmo, bom ver inovao e criatividade, apesar
