PORTEFOLIO
I became passionate about space and building at a young age, and these factors quickly became important influences in the way I live my everyday life. The architecture course was crucial for me to acquire technical knowledge, to study urbanism, the city and recognize the relevance of historic knowledge in order to succeed with a new contribution to contemporary architecture. Learning architecture as the art synthesis par excellence, influenced by the “total work ofart” concept of Richard Wagner (Gesamtkunstwerk), opened my mind and showed me the broad scope of architecture, from the city urban drawing to the design of a door handle within a building. My first internship focussed solely on vacation housing, but my second job opened my architectural perspective to a bigger scale. Beyond establishing contact with large-scale construction works, my role allowed me to get intensely involved with every detail of design. Detailing demonstrate to be on more time, as it did on my Masters thesis about Álvaro Siza’s (where I identified his detail concerning has one of his design keys), a very important link between men and architecture. And that’s what I like to do: architecture, design, create spaces, define its materiality and know how they are going to be built. I am currently looking for an opportunity outside my country and enthusiastic to start a new adventure. Architecture is my primary passion, but not everything is about architecture. Sports, the sea and music are essential in my life, cultivating me and providing me with energy to work and the passion for new exciting challenges.

UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL OF LUANDA COMPETITION LUANDA, ANGOLA 2014
Space distribution Entrance External appointments
The complexity, preparation and development of an Hospital unit is related by it’s countless constraints: it’s objectives, parameters, restricion areas, levels of adjacency and confort, legislation etc. The contruction reflects the quality, the confidence and the high technology resources of this institution through a sober and contemporary language. To intend all of these assumptions, we avoid unnecessary circulations, space loss and applied a strict criteria for internal organization. We avoided the choice of expensive materials, taking into consideration the construction costs and maintenance. Outside is proposed a gray color painting, coupled with the use of glass, outward concret, and a brise soleil system. The rhythmical facades limit the hospital through a pre-fabricated concrete panel system and a glass layer that precedes it. The interior spaces of reception and distribution - Ágora and Atrium- will be lined with ripped wood to achieve comfort and good acoustic characteristics, coupled with a overhead lighting , filtered by vertical and horizontal blades.

The construction of a Datacenter results from ReferTelecom (RT) needs to allocate and manage information technology as a telecom operator, owned by the National Railway Network - REFER EPE. The RT required green or LEED certification on this project , as proof of good environmental practices in the construction and maintenance of the structure. The site is conditioned on west by rail lines, and the GNR Headquarters School located on the opposite side of the street. The solution proposed is a functional program where the building is distributed longitudinally along the ground on two levels. The first with the Datacenter rooms, front and back offices and a small interior courtyard. Superiorly, the battery rooms, UPS and the entire Datacenter air’s freecooling cooling system and control . Externally the building is coated with a ventilated facade wich hides the voluminous mechanical equipment provided, and allows the air exchange with the outside (extraction and air supply). This ventilated façade consists in micro perforated metal panels and pressed concrete panels, with occasional openings and accesses.

ACADEMIC SELECTED PROJECTS
ÁLVARO SIZA VIEIRA IN THE POST-MODERNITY CONTEXT 2012 Master Thesis
Under the Masters degree in Architecture i have proposed the study theme “Álvaro Siza Vieira in the context of Post-Modernity.” The period of postmodernity, connoted as less positive many times, corresponds to a period of major international debate on the architecture issues of education, theory, construction and transdisciplinary work. Facing the modern movement that have been imposed internationally, begins a discussion between architects worldwide who produce books and have theoretical positions that influenced the way of observing and producing architecture and constitute a cultural legacy for contemporary architecture. Given the increasing internationalization and recognition of of Alvaro Siza’s work, and the fact that his work goes through all this period, I became interested to confront the theoretical debate that occurred at the time with his built work. Although Portugal is in a geographically and culturally peripheral region in Europe, I tried to see how this debate has emerged in the country, and how influenced Portuguese architecture, education, and specifically the way Siza designs. Key-words MODERN MOVEMENT POST-MODERNITY ÁLVARO SIZA VIEIRA
32
OBJECT
The period of post-modernity is characterized by a plurality of positions and valid answers to the same problem. When confronted with various theoretical positions, I assemble those are broader and more significant in the period, like Robert Venturi, Louis Kahn, Aldo Rossi, among others, but i certainly didn’t aim to focus only in one position, or extend me exhaustively to the totality of interpretations. I intend to assemble several authors in a comprehensive summary of the theoretical discussion of the time, and build my theoretical object, such as a coherent and relevant base to achieve my objective. This theorical synthesis allows me to foresee the work of Álvaro Siza, in particular four works of the architect chosen by their relevance, providing the very subject of the dissertation. The case studies are the Caxinas Housing Complex, Vila do Conde (1970/72), Beires House, Póvoa do Varzim (1973/76), the “Bonjour Tristesse” Schlesisches Tor, Berlin (1980/84), and the Van der Venne Park Housing, The Hague (1985/88), ando also other works which could be invoked by its meaning or its continuity and relevance in the course of the dissertation.
METHOD
Perhaps in a more detailed way, the goal of this thesis required greater attention to the architectural history of the twentieth cetury. It was essential to conduct a more careful historical contextualization from the foundation of the modern movement, the understanding of their ideals, and then understand the beginning of its response, followed by the period of postmodernity. After this broader context of the international situation, it was necessary to acknowledge the particular situation of Portuguese architecture in the twentieth century, focusing on the periods which the work of Álvaro Siza is inserted, then expose his biography, background and positioning of his works. Equally significant was the compilation of the written material about the Portuguese architect. The State of Art is one of the most important chapters of this dissertation, whose extension reflects the amount of critics, architects and historians who have interpreted and reflected the work of the architect, dedicating him books, articles, interviews and monographs. Bringing together this interpretative material, i divided it into key points, positions that are common to many authors, sometimes by more specific placements and its subsequent contestations by other authors. Following the State of the Art, I proceed the case studies analysis. Based on the acquired knowledge and the confrontation of further analyzes of the same buildings I am studying, I write a more interpretive text with the aim of starting my own theoretical position. A more subjective text which it seeks to provide the basis and build the premise for the radaction of my conclusion.

ABSTRACT
The Industrial Revolution expansion during the 19th century instigated a succession of changes in the production process and economic and social modifications worldwide. The intellectual and technological development allowed architects and engineers to achieve new materialities and construction systems, a growing process that culminates in the emergence of the Modern Movement in the early 20th century. Beyond structural and spatial innovations, this movement asserts itself as overcoming stylistic architecture of the past, which claims a social reform through a new linguistic unity, and doesn’t consider the contribution of history. The weakness and the inability of this attitude is apprehended in the group itself years later, followed by an evaluation period of architectural debate - the period of Post-Modernity, in which an architectural plurality reached a new relationship with the past. This period is often mistakenly reduced to architects who renounced the modernist contribution completely, and who regarded literally the past by exclusive and historicist’s positions. The itinerary of the Portuguese architect Álvaro Siza Vieira fits into this period, my goal is to realize if this architectural worldwide debate influenced his way of designing spaces. Since early times, the architect is inserted into a particular pedagogical study approach at the “Oporto´s School “, witnessing the work of Fernando Távora in the confrontation of the Modern Movement language with natural matters and the particularities of each place. The sensitivity to the context and for this language are perceptible in the early works of Álvaro Siza, but the architect is not limited to do that. The ideological opening of the Post-Modernity period allows him to notice a complex architecture which isn’t reduced by a single unity language, or a sum of influences. His work is based on taking the history of architecture and the natural and architectural context as a form of knowledge. Considering these components Siza is be able to produce “new architectures” that are more than a simple programmatic response, but a contribution to contemporary architecture. 35
4º CENTENÁRIO HOSPITAL RESTRUCTURATION RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL 2010 5.900 m2
Localization plan.

Attending the Revitalization and Rehabilitation project classes during the Interchange program in PUC Rio de Janeiro, professor João Calafate challenged the group of portuguese students to restructure the abandoned 4º Centenário Hospital in Santa Teresa district, into a residential building. The building is located in a dense vegetated hill and surrounded by brazilian slums known as “favelas”. The hospital have been desactivated several years ago, where the first floors turned into local offices. But after vandalism and illegal occupation the federal police had to close and keep the building guarded. After visiting and measure the hospital, we start to work by preserving the building structure and its concrete volumes (lifts and stairs), and then readapt the space to the new program. Awaring the huge social problems of Santa Teresa neighborhood, we wanted to create spaces which stimulate a safe community life, therefore the building embasement was given to the comunity, with an independent lift from the main street. The ground floor is a multifunctional open space where a weekly fruit market happen,and a perfect sheltered place where Capoeira classes and local celebrations take place. Facing the health and sportive adiction by the “cariocas” the gym is on the first floor, and in the second floor is the shooping gallery where local artists can work and sell their own handicrafts. The terrace with a great view from Rio de Janeiro sets two restaurants with local cooker’s delicacies. The residential tower has a total of 28 apartments (each one with one bedroom and living room) and an idependent access to the ground floor and terrace area.

HOUSE IN TRABALHOS CORUCHE, PORTUGAL 2008 360 m2

The exercise was to design a vacation house for a single family on Herdade dos Trabalhos, a Ribatejo homestead near Coruche city. The site was located on the Leziria, the floodplain area along the tagus river and it’s adjacent lands. The proximity of Alentejo stands a particular climate with high thermal rangees, raising Portugal’ highest tempertures on summer, and cold mouths on winter. Alentejo’s popular and vernacular houses reflect the climate conditions: flat houses on the top of the hills composed by simple and depurated white volumes. The small openings and subtancial thick walls keep the houses fresher on summer, and isolate the warm temperature inside during winter around the fireplace. The class had a meeting on the site with professor Falcão de Campos and the costumer, who asked for a vacation house with a big living room, a playroom, four bedrooms, a a car shading area and a swiming pool. During the conversation the costumer emphasized the fireplace, it’s symbolism and relevence on Alentejo way of life in a way that make me take as my bottom line to this exercise.
