An insightful and joyful exchange of ideas on the potentiality of Architecture, space as an emotional field, landscape as politics, photographing as building an hypothesis. On nothing being a void and everything being built, whether consciously or not.
Monade and maat/Fundação EDP hosted the first book launch and Talk around the book “The Order of Landscape”.
Beginning in 1987, with Álvaro Siza in the Malagueira plan, Gomes da Silva’s career has decisively marked Portuguese contemporary architecture. From Serralves Museum Garden to Madeira’s Seafront Promenade and Lisbon's riverfront, his particular conception of new grounds proposes a formality without formalisms and a naturalness without naturalisms.
