Description
The theme of the composition should serve as inspiration for the creation of a single piece, which takes visitors to dream and feel the music.
This should be a reflection of the spirit that lives in the village during the days of the festival. It should therefore be a tribute to the music and in particular the Portuguese music.
The space created should promote interaction and socialization among all who use it and reinterpret the role of eiras today.
The land where is the Eira is known to be torrid, on August afternoons, so the space can benefit from shade or devices that allow a more comfortable occupation, inviting stay.With this contest, it is intended that the participants draw inspiration from the public space that will be intervened, in order to give new life to Eira.
These lands are characteristic of the countryside and have had great importance in the development of small communities and stand today to the abandonment and condemned to oblivion.
The focus is therefore an innovative approach that excites and can motivate new generations to their valuation.
The Eira Lounge Pavilion project should also encourage and highlight the need for principles of ecological and sustainable design whenever possible.The space where the project will be installed, is a prime area to watch the concerts that will take place on this stage. For this reason, the Eira Lounge Pavilion should not be an obstacle to the movement in the Eira Stage area, but should promote a fluid space, permeable and with a strong relationship with the surrounding - bars, stage, access and other surrounding support structures.
The total cost is 5,000€ (including material and human resources for assembly and disassembly).
