Desenhar é seleccionar, seleccionar é interpretar, interpretar é propor.

Manuel de Solà-Morales in Lotus international. (1979). 1st ed. Milan: Electa.


Acreditamos que de modo a entender, representar e atuar sobre o ambiente construído contemporâneo, é crucial comprometermo-nos directamente com as questões históricas, sociais e políticas presentes na paisagem e nos territórios urbanos em que trabalhamos.

Deste modo, atuamos através de uma pesquisa prática que é fundada essencialmente em operações in-situ imersivas, que estão focadas em explorar ferramentas de trabalho interdisciplinares, capazes de fortalecer a nossa capacidade de ler, comprometer, interpretar e atuar sobre as potencialidades e condicionantes encontradas no ambiente construído.

A nossa prática procura desenvolver uma metodologia ambivalente que é específica e flexível, e que experimenta e expande o uso das seguintes ferramentas de trabalho: Observar; Mapear; Comprometer; Imaginar.
