Description
Greatest work of the “Lisbon architect” outside the capital, this impressive building in the Aliados Avenue stands out from its neighbours by its horizontality and classic gravity of its volume. The classic and institutional appearance of the exterior, contrasts with the art deco environment of the octagonal central hall and its double height. Apart from the spaces of Culturgest that since 2002 promotes cultural activities, this visit includes the safes. (Jorge Figueira, Carlos Machado e Moura, OHP’16)
