We are pleased to have seen the MPA building be included in the last route of The Lusitan Architecture Experience, a program of technical guided visits of architecture, which in recent years has brought thousands of foreign professionals to know the emblematic works of Portuguese architecture.


Hans Ola Boman, Swedish architect based in Portugal and mentor of this tours, explained recently to Alexandra Couto in Fugas, a saturday supplement of the portuguese Público newspaper  (September 1, 2012) that "This is a type of tourism that is in high demand at Sweden and Germany, where there has always been the tradition of the architecture firms organize periodic trips to places where their employees can get to know 'the ultimate' in terms of construction." In the same article, he states that "the Portuguese architecture has a lot of international reputation  - especially the so-called School of Porto - and these groups want the visit to be targeted in their own language, preferably by a professional who has worked in both countries, to address the technical knowledge of the work and also differences professional and social context."


The images document the visit of a group of Swedes architects past Saturday, September 29. New tour will take place on 5 October.
