A FABRICAsociedade Antiga Cerâmica de Coimbra - Refurbish of an Old FactoryProject Manager: Luísa Bebiano Correia; Atelier “O Corvo” | Team: Diogo Rodrigues, Pedro Canotilho, Ivan sachArea: 700 m2

O edifício da velha fábrica de cerâmica data do século Xvi, foi sofrendo alterações de acordo com as necessi-dades, de uma forma pouco qualificada, o que lhe con-fere um aspecto bastante complexo e característico. O programa proposto inclui um museu com uma parte expositiva e a parte de produção de cerâmica a qual deverá ser acedida pelos visitantes do museu. inclui ainda uma cafetaria e um atelier de design.a proposta apresentada pretende manter o aspecto pop-ular da fábrica, mantendo dentro das possibilidades a velha estrutura e configuração espacial do edifício. São feitas pequenas alterações, nomeadamente no telhado, de forma a responder a questões construtivas e estéticas que surgiram ao longo do processo. Este foi simplificado permitindo uma limpeza na leitura dos espaços e inclui várias entradas de luz que vão permitir uma iluminação adequada a cada função associada. Outras pequenas alterações foram feitas no edifício, de forma a responder a questões de higiene e práticas do programa, onde se inclui o desenho de um bar de apoio à cafetaria.

This old building was used as a ceramic factory at least for two hundred years. many of the building’s main fea-tures are the result of several and consecutive informal “up-grades” done by the workers themselves in order to solve increasing production needs. The comission is to refurbish this factory and transform it into somekind of “industrial museum cluster” open to gen-eral public which also includes a design office and a small cafeteria, and suitable enough to host a small team of artisans. We decided to touch as little as possible in the factory’s original structure, preserving it’s peculiar and awk-ward architectural layout, only to include special skylights in order to facilitate proper natural lighting.

a construção do novo edifício do museu de etnografia do lobito, pretende assegurar uma infra-estrutura adequada à exibição e preservação do acervo museológico actual e aumentar o mesmo, dando especial ênfase ao património Ovimbundo.Para a elaboração do projecto, foi importante a análise da arquitectura moderna do sul de angola, de modo a perceber os principais temas e soluções técnicas. Desta mesma analise resulta a vontade de orientar o edifício numa relação entre cheio-vazio, interior exterior.formal-mente o edifício do museu, que congrega também um Centro de Congressos, é definido por uma série de per-cursos exteriores cobertos que unem os vário programas interiores, originando pátios e zonas exteriores de apro-priação diversa para o museu.Os espaços interiores contém programas que pretendem misturar o conceito pedagógico de museu com o de lazer. assim foram propostos espaços como salas de exposição, cinema, cafetaria ou loja. relativamente aos espaços ad-ministrativos e logísticos, garante-se a sua autonomia do restante programa, através de circulação.

The construction of lobito’s Ethnographical museum has the purpose of both ensuring appropriate infrastructure to the exhibition and preservation of the actual museographic collection and increases that same collection, with empha-sis in Ovimbundo patrimony.The study and analysis of Southern angola modern archi-tecture were very important to the project’s preparation, so as to comprehend the main themes and technical solutions. That same study has enlightened a will to guide the build-ing in a relation between full-empty, indoor-outdoor. from a formal point of view, the museum’s building, that also in-cludes a Conference Center, is defined by several outdoor covered paths that connect the series of interior programs available at the museum, which results in patios and out-door areas with different applications to the museum.The indoor areas include programs that intend to merge the educational concept of the museum with leisure. With that purpose in mind, the project to the museum included exhibition rooms, a movie theater, a coffee shop or a store. regarding administrative and logistical areas, both are independent from the museum’s program, by separate circulation areas.

O pequeno edifício desenhado situa-se no limite da her-dade de Torre de Palma (Portalegre – Portugal ), respeita a implantação e volumetria duma pequena casa pré-ex-istente e será uma das suites do Hotel desenhado para esta herdade. O tema de projecto surge da tradicional rua região alentejana, com as suas grandes chaminés e continuidade das ruas. Desta forma o desenho da casa une ao grande muro que cerca a herdade o espelho de agua que se situa junto á adega, destacando-se apenas a presença da grande chaminé e da porta de acesso á suite. Desenha-se desta forma o primeira limite da herdade. O programa pro-posto para esta pequena casa consiste numa sala, carac-terizada pela grande lareira, com cozinha e um pequeno espaço para dormidas de crianças, um quarto e duas casas de banho.

This house belongs to a larger comission to refurbish an old country estate and transform it into a country hotel lo-cated in the province of Portalegre in alentejo which is a large agricultural region in Portugal. The complex com-prises an early XX’th century mansion which will be used as the main hotel , and other several smaller buildings ( the barn, the caretaker house and the celler ) which are to be adapted into guesthouses. The house’s design follows some of the traditional local architecture principles, seen on the existing remaining buildings , with thick walls cov-ered in white plaster , small framing in the facade to avoid intense sunlight. Despite, being built in concrete, it bounds with the existent estate’s outerwall and many of the house’s design features are evocative of local architecture: small framed windows, single roof and white plastered walls. The house includes a masterbedroom and a living room with mezzanine, a kitchen and fireplace.

Esta obra de arquitectura teve como principais temas de projecto a caixa repetida, o eixo central, a simetria e as formas geométricas puras. Estas caixas vêm dar resposta a grande parte do programa – duas salas de tratamento ( gabinetes ), um espaço intermédio de lavagem, uma sala de espera e instalações sanitárias – definindo as duas salas de tratamento e nos espaços sobrantes surge o pro-grama restante. a iluminação artificial foi estudada com especial cuidado: no interior dos gabinetes pretende-se uma luz homogénea para os tratamentos e no exterior pretendem-se luzes pontuais ( mais quentes ). a materi-alidade desta obra apresenta-se depurada de formas e texturas, criando uma sensação de “limpeza” através dos tons claros da bétula e espaço totalmente branco que en-volve ambos os volumes.

The comission was to design a beauty parlor on a ground-floor shop with a glassfront facing a pedestrian street. The shop is quite small, narrow and long and the program had to preview several treatment cabinets, so it was quite clear we had to think of a scheme that would allow us to fit all it was requested. We started to define a central axis in which we set two birch plywood boxes which host the treatment areas.The boxes do not touch the ceiling and specially designed spotlights are located above these boxes to set a quite the-atrical ambiance. also we chose to use a white coloured floor and walls in order to provide a clean and minimalist atmosphere.

Planear a organização do terreno da Quinta do Olhão, tendo em vista o uso do mesmo para produção de ervas aromáticas e seu tratamento foi o desafio colocado aos projectistas. Desenharam-se algumas das infra-estruturas necessárias (armazém, casa da electricidade, vedação, etc) e definiu-se a localização das restantes zonas a im-plantar no terreno (parcelamento dos talhões, implantação da estufa e localização do furo de agua) .a proposta teve em conta a necessidade de controlar custos, planear a obra em várias fases, de acordo com a evolução das necessidades de produção, e ainda uma simplicidade construtiva que garantisse a fácil con-strução.assim desenhou-se um armazém que numa fase inicial é constituído apenas por um contentor, evoluindo para um espaço com cerca de 150 m2, constituído por dois con-tentores que servem de apoio à cobertura de um grande espaço central. a área construída pode aumentar até aos 400m2 repetindo o modelo de construção da fase anterior. Na casa da electricidade utilizaram-se materiais simples, mas com alguma complexidade de desenho ga-rantindo as necessidades técnicas próprias destas insta-lações.

The comission was to plan a small and very low budget agriculture facility dedicated to aromatic herbs production, including all the support buildings , fences and main ware-house. Therefore we thought it would be clever to divide the completion of the main warehouse in three stages, ac-cording to estimated revenue and the client’s interest to expand storage area. The building scheme starts with a 150sq m initial module composed of two recycled ship containers and a pre-fabricated metal roof which is easily expanded by adding several equal modules.

To whom it may concern,it was with great pleasure that i directed Diogo da Costa Coimbra rodrigues’ architecture internship in my studio. iwitnessed the excellent way in which all works were met, showing proof of accuracy, intelligence and imagination.Extending his interests not only in the field of architectural design as in wider areas, Diogo always met the challeng-es in a uniquely professional way and with a sensitivity rare to find.i also believe his team work integration capabilities are a very valuable factor in studio and business environment.Therefore, i strongly recommend the prospect of approv-al for an application to work in a studio or any creative field.

EN

i believe that all backing to a professional work by the architect Diogo da Costa Coimbra rodrigues will be an asset to the team where he enters, besides the stimulus of architectural practice and its relations with capable people is also an investment in architecture as a discipline and profession.
