Introduction

This project proposal, in the framework of a competition to the Unesco center in Macao was our answer to the monumentality that the program and the client demand. A building with a strong and monolithic presence to the street, with the aim of highlighting itself even as being situated in one of the most busy neighborhoods and with many high-rise buildings.
