Innovative Ideas for Porto Water Tanks
Architecture Competition

The objective of the competition was create innovative uses for its water towers and surroundings of underground water tanks. These tanks are typically surrounded by gardens and unused operational buildings, some of which are located on hilltops with fine views. These spaces are potentially open to the public for environmentally sustainable activities, compatible with the operational and safety requirements of their primary water supply use.

outside - a waste concrete tube, inside - a perfect place for climbing
During our design job, we were trying to create a place reminding a deep cave. In the nature, most caves are illuminated in a very specific way. This kind of illumination gives a beautiful effect, witch we've used in our project.
Building is composed from three parts:
-entrance hall with technical support
-climbing wall
-mazzanine and viewing platform on the roof
