The spatial and formal relationship\nbetween the fort and the chapel is <em>su\u00edgeneris, <\/em>revealing different building techniques. Both set up like a triangular \"vault\" keeping a relic.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The intervention intended to qualify the entire interior of the fort, including the courtyard (ground\nparade), the chapel and the rooms of the bastions. The intervention restores the exterior while\nrequalifies the interior spaces.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">There are two programs:<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">- To the courtyard and the chapel the spaces were cleaned and restored to receive an\nexhibition alluding to the history of the fort, including its role in the \"Peninsular Wars\";<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">- For the rooms of the bastions, the spaces were arranged for a bar and restaurant. In southern\none, for the dining room, it was build a laminated wooden domed structure that reorganizes the\ngeometry of space, controls the artificial light, hides infrastructure and protects the original walls. In\nnorthern bastion there are toilets divided in separate cabins.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The intervention sought to be the least intrusive as possible so that the formal, constructive and\nspatial characteristics may prevail and, if necessary, allows total recovery of its original expression.\nThe most significant intervention was the introduction of hidden infrastructure enabling its\nadaptation to the new program without losing its original spatial relationship, internally and externally -\nwith the natural surrounding and its urban landscape - as a place of seclusion, lookout and\nobservation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The goal was to provide public enjoyment of the Fort, offering its spaces - courtyard, rooms and\nterrace, counting and continuing its history.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forte Santa Catarina Cr\u00ea-se que&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":15611,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","portfolio_category":[59],"portfolio_tag":[],"class_list":["post-10364","portfolio_page","type-portfolio_page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-reabilitacao"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_page\/10364","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_page"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio_page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10364"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_page\/10364\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16341,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_page\/10364\/revisions\/16341"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15611"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10364"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=10364"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rvdm.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tag?post=10364"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
