This project focuses on the Bouça neighbourhood, the work of architect Álvaro Siza. We wanted to present the main moments and characteristics of the area through a visual narrative that illustrates the neighbourhood. We focused on the different aspects that define the space: volumetry, environment, housing, relationship with the metro and the city.
The question of people is something important in our project that cannot be left out of a work related to a collective residential area. More than the architecture, it would be necessary to represent its relationship with people, to show the social district not just as an empty piece of architecture, but as the way it comes to life through the people who inhabit it. To explore this theme, we started by depicting subtle elements of everyday life, as well as the residents and their routines in the neighbourhood.
