This title includes text in English & Portuguese. In the second
half of 2007, the baton of the EU Council Presidency was passed to
Portugal. The country decided to hold the majority of the planned
meetings, conferences and summits at a central location in Lisbon.
The chosen venue was the Sala Tejo des Pavilhao Atlantico, which
was converted to host the meetings on the future of Europe,
culminating in the Treaty of Lisbon. The architects commissioned
for this project, Baixa, Atelier de Arquitectura, successfully gave
the venue - as well as the event - an impressive identity, marked
by Portuguese culture and contemporary architecture. This book pays
tribute to this ephemeral piece of architecture with a
comprehensive collection of sketches, drawings and photos. In the
accompanying and introductory texts, the project is viewed through
the eyes of two well-known architecture critics as well as the Head
of Mission of the Portuguese Presidency.
