Key Property + Architectural Developments in Portugal, western Europe
Buildings in PortugalArquitetura PortuguesaWe've selected what we feel are the key examples of Portuguese Buildings. We aim to include buildings in Portugal that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both. We cover completed buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across Portugal. The focus is on contemporary Portuguese buildings but information on traditional buildings in Portugal is also welcome. We have 5 pages of Portuguese Architecture selections with links to many individual project pages.

The typology was defined according to the best sunlight, as this is one of the richest of this Mediterranean country. So all rooms are oriented to the east, the living room (place more permanent) to south, the kitchen to west and garage to north where the functionality is the symbiosis of the project. Povoação Pools, São Miguel, Azores Barbosa & Guimaraes  photo : © João Ferrand Povoação Pools - added 5 Jun 2012 The village of Povoação is located on the Archipelago of the Azores, on the southern edge of the island of S. Miguel. Protected from the sea by a slope, the building is going to occupy a plot comprised of a flat, rectangular platform already prepared and used by the Municipal Council for other outdoor sports activities. This platform was achieved by «sacrificing» the slope, imposing a cut that distorts its natural volume. Pousada de Cascais, southwest Portugal Gonçalo Byrne Arquitectos  photograph : Joao Morgado Pousada de Cascais Citadel Hotel - 5 Jun 2012 This luxury hotel, Pousada de Cascais, is set within the walls of the historical fortress, the emblematic 16th century Citadel of Cascais, in the centre of Cascais. It is a place where ancient meets modern, and many of the rooms are dramatically set into the former barracks which makes each space a different experience, while others, more modern, enjoy spectacular views to the sea or over the huge internal patio spaces.
