An article entitled ‘Structuring Space’ focused on our project ‘Common Places : Micro-interventions in Nove Fuzine’, designed along with Portuguese landscape architect Tiago Torres Campos in the context of Future Architecture Platform and BIO25.

Although the museum had expected an interior installation project, it was immediately enthusiastic.

Reifying the user over the expert and social capital over technology, the outcome is humble but provocative”.
