Between heritage and transformation
The Trinity College Renovation, led by the Aires Mateus e Associados studio, starts from the recognition of the existing historical value. The project does not simply aim to preserve a specific era, but embraces the concept of the succession of time, distinguishing between the eternal, represented by stone and imposing walls, and the ephemeral, historically constructed in wood. This vision is part of a broader reflection on renovation projects, where respect for the past combines with the need for a new architectural language.
