Abstract

The present work consists of the design project for the Benfica Municipal Library, named Maria Teresa Horta, and is based on the theme “Architecture Beyond the Skin”, which seeks to understand the building as an organism composed of interdependent layers - Epidermis, Dermis, and Hypodermis - corresponding respectively to the envelope, the program, and the structure. The proposal aims to challenge the monumentality of the surrounding institutional buildings, promoting a subtle integration within the topography and establishing a direct relationship with the landscape. The Epidermis is expressed as the vegetation mantle that covers the site and the green roof, creating a symbiosis between the building and its surroundings. The Dermis represents the interior program, defined by a flexible organization that allows multiple configurations and uses, ensuring the sustainability and longevity of the public space. The Hypodermis, in turn, defines the structural system of the ensemble, combining reinforced concrete, steel, and glass, which function as the physical and symbolic support of architecture. More than a building, the library proposes an architecture that merges with the place, promoting continuity between interior and exterior, matter and landscape. The dissertation also reflects on the design process as an instrument of experimentation, critique, and synthesis between thinking and making architecture. Thus, the skin that inspires the project reveals itself as permeable, alive, and in constant transformation.

O presente trabalho consiste no projeto da Biblioteca Municipal de Benfica, designado Maria Teresa Horta, e parte do tema “A arquitetura para além da pele”, que propõe compreender o edifício como um organismo composto por camadas interdependentes - Epiderme, Derme e Hipoderme - correspondentes, respetivamente, à envolvente, ao programa e à estrutura. A proposta procura contrariar a monumentalidade dos edifícios institucionais do contexto, promovendo a integração subtil na topografia e estabelecendo uma relação direta com a paisagem. A Epiderme manifesta-se como o manto de vegetação que cobre o lote e a cobertura ajardinada, numa simbiose entre o edifício e a envolvente. A Derme traduz o programa interior, definido por uma organização flexível que permite múltiplas configurações e adaptações de uso, assegurando a sustentabilidade e a longevidade do espaço público. Já a Hipoderme representa o sistema estrutural do conjunto, combinando betão armado, aço e vidro, que funcionam como suporte físico e simbólico da arquitetura. Mais do que um edifício, a biblioteca propõe uma arquitetura que se funde com o lugar, promovendo a continuidade entre interior e exterior, matéria e paisagem. O trabalho reflete ainda sobre o processo de projeto enquanto instrumento de experimentação, crítica e síntese entre pensar e fazer arquitetura. Assim, a pele que inspira o projeto, revela-se permeável, viva e em constante transformação.
