#05 ÁLVARO SIZA VIEIRA
Casa de Chá da Boa Nova
"Casa de Chá da Boa Nova (1958/63) will be the possibility to practice the new references in particularly favorable conditions. The safety of a landscape and a challenging topography, which are wished unalterable, a kind of guarantor of an universal harmony, was setting and place for a designed building in contemplation / understanding of nature, not being, however, mimetic or passive, but generous identification and active interpretation. See yourself as the rocks before thoroughly conditioned the shape, gain cut and special sculptural force against the white plaster and become into spectacular fireworks´ project."
