Pádua Ramos Exhibition Opening: From Architecture to Design

To close the 2023 program calendar, Casa do Design will open the exhibition "Pádua Ramos: from Architecture to Design", organized by esad-idea, on December 16 at 4pm.

The retrospective is dedicated to the architect Luís Pádua Ramos (1931 - 2005), whose most representative works express the search for a symbolic and semantic dimension of architecture, contaminated by Art Nouveau, Art Deco and Popular Art, but also by Pop Art and the radical and post-modern movements that were sweeping across Europe and the United States in those years: from the Archigram group to the Superstudio and Archizoom groups, from the Memphis group to Michael Graves and James Stirling, Robert Venturi and Charles Moore. At the same time, it will be possible to visit "Petrichor, o Cheiro da Chuva", curated by Fernando Brízio, which will be on show at Casa do Design until March 2024.
