Text description provided by the architects. The new structures at Paredes de Coura begin as a support for an old structure: one body laying down, another standing up, with proportions that are comparable. They are not made to be a dwelling in a remote location where they may be abandoned. They can, however, meet basic requirements such as relaxing and writing a book on a tower-like structure and staying there. Its structure is reduced to the most basic, the concrete block, which represents unity, size, and the place where everything is formed, in its multiplication.
