Held on 25th of October of 2025 at Campo do Luso, this event aimed to gather residents’ perceptions of this housing complex.
Participants identified distinctive elements of Luso, such as tiles, granite, and concrete, sharing memories related to the community spirit and the transformations of the complex over time, and reflecting on issues concerning the preservation and maintenance of the housing complex.In the final part, residents associated words with the concept of heritage, highlighting ideas such as asset, inheritance, and civic-mindedness. Professor Rui Póvoas emphasized the importance of Luso as an architectural heritage of the 20th century and addressed the challenge of reconciling preservation with contemporary demands. The meeting concluded with a call to value everyday architecture and the active role of residents in this process.
