Despite its inefficient and unaesthetical existing facade, this building stands in front of one of the best views of the city, full of traditional portuguese houses and one of its 7 famous hills.

Our strategy to design the new facade was then clear: we needed to create a mirror where this beautiful Lisboa could be projected.
