MEDITATION SPACE IN MOUCHÃO DO LOMBO DO TEJO PROJECT IX/X AIRES MATEUS Autonomous University of Lisbon
The subject Project X aims to create an architectural environment made for meditation, which can be either a building or an outdoor area/pathway. It allows for a large degree of liberty but must comply with a central concept – an area of universal meditation with no religious connotation which can be enjoyed and felt by everyone. Meditation occurs naturally as one experiences the place; initially a site visit was made, the boat trip to the island and on foot through the island itself. The fact that the project is located on an island, assumed to be deserted, exacerbates the idea of travelling, of moving from one shore to the other, from a given reality to an entirely different one. Another immediate realization during the trip is the feeling of isolation, as the island is closed off to the outside, physically by water and visibly by the elevation on the edges. It is a space closed upon itself. It was understood that the way to meditation is through approaching the theme of Journey as a way of breaking free of habits and day-to-day routines, allowing for a state of abstraction that enables different kinds of feelings. There is also the theme of Isolation, allowing for introspective thinking which can con-tribute for the individual’s discovery of himself, with his own identity and purpose. The area to be proposed aims to have these concepts as its basis, exploring the idea of the Journey to the building, which is to have a shape and matter which are timeless, an unknown imaginary, in space and time, with no connection of style or age. Physically and visibly isolated from the outside.

CONVENT OF DESTERRO RECONVERSION AND ADJACENT BLOCK
PROJECT VII/VIII NUNO MATEUS / ARX PORTUGAL Autonomous University of Lisbon
The project VII/VIII is related with the recovery of a pre-existent building, a former convent of the religious order built in nineteenth century. Another goal was to enhance the surrounding block, reorganizing the available empty space and the vacant buildings, located between Rua Nova and Avenida Almirante Reis generating new buildings and new spaces. The revitalization of the surrounding city is one of the expected results of this intervention. The adaption of the convent building into a hotel, and the creation of new residential buildings were also other expected results. The main focus of this project was to promote social inclusion, which is already a characteristic of this specific area, is known for being populated by people from different countries with different ages and belonging to a different social strata. Besides the hotel proposal, our idea was also to implement one complex of residential buildings for students, private and social housings. Allocating students was defined as a priority since the beginning of the draft detail.
