Have you always wondered where Olhão’s designation as a “Cubist City” comes from? With this book, Cubist Architecture in Olhão, you will not only find an engaging answer to that question, but also gain clear insight into its origins and the defining characteristics that accompany it. From the abundance of flat roofs to the rooftop structures (mirantes) and other typical elements such as staircases and chimneys.
The book also addresses the former demolition plans for the historic fishing districts of Barreta and Levante, and explains how new neighborhoods were developed on the outskirts of the city as an alternative.
Following the introduction to the Cubist City, the reader is guided—using a fold-out map at the back of the book—along 25 projects that have been restored or newly built in the historic quarters in recent years. In addition to several spectacular hotels such as Casa Fuzetta, Casa Amor, and O Convento, the architectural tour highlights a variety of other remarkable projects, including Casa Artística, Casa Rosa, and Casa Dois, as well as recently renovated works by renowned architects such as SENA Architects, Filipe Monteiro, and Cok (Jacob) Bakker.
Be inspired by the diversity of architectural projects presented in this compact A5-format book, featuring 51 full-color pages.
