Hugo Domingos Lisbon, Portugal +351 966069620 28th of March 2022, Lisbon Dear Sir or Madam, I am interested in working for Kengo Kuma and Associates as a Junior Architect. I recently graduated with a Masters Degree in Architecture from the University of Lisbon. During my five years of study, I gained a great understanding, as well as practical experience in programs from Autodesk and Adobe Creative Cloud. During my studies, I competed in the WWF Observation Cabins 2021 contest. During the contest I took on the role of team lead and conceptualization of the project. The presented project is showcased in my portfolio. I also completed an internship in Ljubljana (Slovenia) at Studio Kalamar d.o.o. under head architect Andrej Kalamar. In addition to that I gained my first international experience while studying a year abroad in South Korea at Inha University. My English is IELTS Cl certified and I also speak fluent Portuguese, as well as B2 Spanish. Throughout my studies and internship, I was able to showcase my proactive approach to projects, as well as my critical thinking skills. I am calm and decisively under pressure and work well in a team. I’d welcome the opportunity to speak with you if you feel I’d be a strong candidate for this or other positions within your organization. Best regards,

Hugo Domingos

Symbiosis and transition in Alcântara Valley Nzeb habitation models in the context of the new agricultural urban park and pre-existing neighbourhoods

The environmental crisis is one of the most important issues of today’s society. Therefore, the environmental impact of architecture projects has to be taken more and more into consideration. At the same time does this issue present the chance of developing new focuses and areas of projects. The retrospective look at Alcântara valley creates a vision of contrast of what is and could be. A possible path towards a world where nature and city can coexist is created and can be taken. In this context, housing emerges as a formative element for a new contemporary city. The architecture seeks to combine the fulfilment of human and environmental needs. The project supports the revitalization of a river, that is currently running through a tube under the earth, by restoring its natural properties, while also merging with the new urban park. The whole project aims for a sustainable way of living with its managed forests and urban farms. The architecture strives to be a natural complement to the city by consolidating it, as well as organizing the new urban park front by creating an idea of limit.

WWF Observation Cabins Nature observation complex All the presented work has been developed by three other architecture students and me for an international architecture competition. My role in the team was the one of team manager and concept developer. I also produced 3D models and worked on the postproduction of the renderings.

HUGO DOMINGOS The WWF observation cabin competition is a project directed to the preservation of the wildlife, more specifically in the Oasis of the Orbetelho Bay in Italy. It consists of the creation of a tourist path through observations cabins whit different purposes and concepts, in addition, the program required temporary habitation and services connected to an exposition and briefing area. The lagoon of Orbetello is a picturesque landscape where typical Italian architecture is alive and flourishing. Animals can be admired in their natural state, as they found an oasis in this landscape. The project “WWF Observation Cabins” pays respect to the history of the site, as well as the aspect of sustainability. Represented with these keywords; nature, culture and sustainability. Upon arrival, the visitor is welcomed by three main architectural masses of stone and earth. These volumes are united by a metal curtain, which works as an idea of limit that keeps the view shielded from the visitors, while also creating a small plaza space. This works as a communion space before the visit to the site. This space is directly connected with the biggest of the volumes. A restaurant is set on the right of the plaza and is the most interpersonal space. It offers the opportunity of a meeting point between people and works as a beacon. On its left side, the public building is presented as the mass that invites to enter and is structured by a perforated corridor. In the corridor, the light from above illuminates and the program is attached to it. “Empty” spaces are created purposely to create small patios that allow the visitor to move through the corridor. The third and most private of the three volumes is the temporary accommodation. It is still directly connected with the balcony created in the space between the temporary housing itself and the restaurant. The accommodations have spaces in between that work as social and adaptable spaces. The observation cabins, based upon the iconography of agriculture watching towers in Italy, use this imagery to create “ruins”. These reassemble this imagery and leave them to be appropriated by nature. The main materials used in the project (stone and earth) can be easily resourced and processed on-site. This diminishes their environmental impact and provides a connection to the memory of centuries of traditional architecture. 12

Polana craftmanship workshop rehabilitation and expansion project All the presented work has been developed in collaboration with the architect Andrej Kalamar during my employment at his architecture studio, Studio Kalamar d.o.o.

Organizational Diagram

The purpose of the Polana project is to establish a place that celebrates the traditional Slovenian craftmanship of basket making and strives to be recognized as a UN world heritage in rural Slovenia. By adding additional buildings, that complement the original structure and purpose, the project tries to create a more tourist-friendly environment. Due to the addition of a path, the visitors can have a better understanding of the workshops and creation process of the traditional Slovenian products. It also helps establish an easy walkthrough of the site. The central building contains a workshop, a kitchen and a storage room for the needed raw materials in the production processes. The building is designed in different block shapes, one of each containing one of the before named

units. The overall building structure makes it possible for tourists to see the workshops from outside, which is supported by the disposition of the windows. The whole building complex is connected by a pergola, which is often used in the area. Overall does the existing building only endure minor changes, mainly to the organization of the units. Next to the main building, a barn has been added for storage purposes, as well as a parking lot for visitors. the visitor to get a clear view to the craftmanship process, all this connected with a “crown” like pergola that resembles the ones used in the area, the pre-existing building sofers minor changes mainly in organization of its program.

Collective Habitation Habitation apartments .

HUGO DOMINGOS The project “Collective Habitation” located in Lisbon. The project strives to create new living spaces while responding to the program given. For that purpose, the small pre-existing habitations were torn down. The program of the new habitation was to create twelve small apartments, three big ones and three variants. In addition to that a parking lot, a commercial area and a communal area were part of the program. The challenge of the project was to follow the program while also guaranteeing the passage of a road that passes through the terrain and trying to create quality living spaces. To solve the passage problem, the one floor of the building has been elevated to give for the road to pass under. In addition to that, the houses have been organized to receive maximum sun exposure. Due to uninteresting surroundings, a system of views was planned for the habitants not to have direct contact with the direct surrounding buildings. Another aspect that has been taken into account are the fire security safety distances. This is why the hallway is open to the air. In general, the project tries to acknowledge the connecting buildings by adding details that align with the neighbouring facades.
