Habitar Lisboa / Living in Lisbon: Uma Perspetiva Arquitetónica sobre uma Crise Contemporânea
Completed | 2023–2024 | Lisbon, Portugal | Centro Cultural de Belém (CCB), Garagem Sul
Since 2014, the price of housing in Portugal has been increasing more than 6% per year. Lisbon was the municipality in the country most affected by this problem, infecting the surrounding districts and pushing inhabitants out of the centre. The exhibition Living in Lisbon seeks to present some of the most charismatic architectural housing strategies undertaken in the Portuguese capital over the past 50 years of democracy, to make the current situation visible and also to present plans for the future, by bringing together ideas and proposals from professionals of different areas: Sociology, Geography, Landscape and, above all, Architecture.
