Casa das Artes
Address
Rua de Ruben A
4050 Porto
Portugal
.
The building is located in the gardens of a neo-classical mansion
in Porto, dating from the beginning of the 20th century. The
program for the competition proposed a cinema, an auditorium
and an exhibition gallery, as well as the conservation of the
gardens as they were. This is one of the first built projects of
Eduardo Souto Moura. It's mainly composed of two parallel granite
stone walls, with all the programin the middle. With a very
minimalistic approach, this building is composed of great building
details, reminding some of Mies Van der Rohe's characteristics.
