manuel bernardes school: gymnasium casa mãe quinta dos azulejos A
free-standing metallic structure, this blue gymnasium/multi-use room
is characterized by its flexibility, the possibility of it being able
to be dismantled and mounted in another location. The versatility
disposed, due to the structure choice and the
construction speed, offered an answer to modern wills that demand velocity and
mutation capacity. Built for children, its main form suggests a
childlike world, a sheltered place for the activities of the little
ones. Inside there are small details that subtly play with light and
transparency, transporting its occupants to a larger world than the
space actually occupies.
