Consulate of Portugal

Consulate of Portugal

The initial concept starts with the generation of a central space around different courtyards. To the outside, through a perimeter wall, a walkway is generated that creates alleys and paths that connect with this central space. In the same way, this perimeter wall maintains a privacy towards an internal world that changes when walking through the interior through these patios that generate ventilation and at the same time form the internal distribution for the better functioning of the consulate.

In the same way, the hierarchy of a volume of greater height and flexibility of space predominates where the central point of the project is located: the multipurpose room. Its location and direction to the north allows it to generate a light materiality that allows the greatest entry of sunlight.
