Casa da Musica

Analise extensa sobre a Casa da Musica no Porto.
Espero que o vosso inglês esteja afinado... Nada de novo quanto ao que todos já sabiamos, mas, é sempre bom para ter a certeza.

"The concept of CdM was developed for a single family house whose dwellers-to-be were very peculiar in their demands. OMA suggested a villa which main principles were the co-existence under one roof of a series of open yet isolated spaces for each member of the family. These would eventually allow seeing through in specific spots and only meet physically in one big central area thought as a long wide tunnel."

"The villa was scaled up 5 times and inserted in a wide-open travertine plateau. This plaza broke with the solidly structured city fabric, setting up a new décor for that part of Porto by bringing together issues of visibility, accessibility, functionality, meaning, experience and, in a more extensively way, urban morphology and logistics."
