City Cortex
City Cortex opened in 6 of June of 2024
A program produced by Amorim that connects Lisbon and Trafaria!
It is on the banks of the Tagus River that you can discover the creators' pieces and discover the installations of this project that combines design, architecture, urban life and sustainability.
It was in the Belém area, in a debate with Eduardo Souto de Moura, Elizabeth Diller, Gabriel Calatrava, Dominic Leong, Stefan Sagmeister e Yves Béhar, that their projects born from cork and the processes used to work with this material were presented. Through dialogues and cross conversations, 6 interventions, that on a walking tour through this part of the city, you can find out where they were installed and the surrounding spaces.
Right away, cross the Tagus River by boat to Trafaria, and discover the dynamics of another project by Gabriel Calatrava, which was presented in a celebratory environment with the participation of the local community.
At the end, toast you too, as happened at the inauguration, at sunset with music and good mood.
