This Project, aimed to relocate an existing village in the southeast region of Protugal (with approx. 500 inhabitants), which would be flooded by the construction of a dam.

It comprehended the design of its urban plan, new basic infrastructures and 204 houses.

Its participatory approach resulted in a reinterpretation of the old village, maintaining the same neighbourhood relations and ensuring to its beneficiaries the restitution of all their construction goods and lands previously assessed and accurately defined.
