Portugal
Spaceworkers is an architecture and design studio located in Paredes in northern Portugal, founded by the current creative directors Henrique Marques and Rui Dinis and by its financial director Carla Duarte. The studio based its practice on the exploration and constant search of new paradigms of contemporary achitecture in order to achieve a close relation between form and emotions. The work of the studio reflect the pragmatic vision with which they face the challenges, and the critical spirit that evaluate the context that surrounds them, appealing to the sensibility of its clients for a new way to face and perceive space in its sensorial dimension.

Exhibition Centre
The building consists of seven volumes of exposed concrete with different heights. Each of them represents a unique exhibition space and to explore the relation between each one, an illuminated spatial distribution structure was created with a glass covering that leads to the access of each of these volumes. This connection axis explores the contrasts of light versus dark in the exhibition spaces. The building adapts to the present without forgetting the important Romanesque past, creating an atmospheric symbiosis between different times.
