Sede EDP. Un accumulatore di luci e ombre
The EDP Headquarters in Lisbon, built by Aires Mateus in 2015, looks like a landmark on the riverside. This building consists of two emerging bodies joined by an underground base, which are arranged transversely between the Tejo and the hill of Santa Catarina, so as not to constitute a visual obstacle between the city and the river. The two bodies delimit a large shaded square, which diagonally cuts across the ground floor of the building, ensuring spatial continuity from the road and allowing transverse flow.
