Bar no jardim 9 de abril / The 9 April Garden, Lisbon, Portugal. Architect: aspa arquitectos, 2011. Detail of glazed bar.
A panoramic promontory with views over the Tejo and framed by a set of buildings whose architectural heritage is of great interest, the garden April 9 aka Albertas (About the convent of Carmelite nuns of Albertas) or garden Rocha do Conde Obidos, appears as a green space surrounded by tradition, open to the river and the ships. The bar with a terrace is built as a single storey structure. Its ephemeral character, lightness of materials, transparency, permeability and reflection promotes and preserves existing views, allowing the structure not to become an obstacle.
