D'ALMEIDA, Patrícia Bento  e  MARAT-MENDES, Teresa. Restelo as an urban and architectural laboratory. Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal [online]. 2019, vol.ser2, n.12, pp.141-160. ISSN 2183-3176.

The present study seeks to demonstrate how the Restelo neighbourhood in Lisbon, overlooked, in a tribune oriented to Tagus River, to the contributions of the most recent History of Architecture, Urbanism and Scientific Research in Architecture and Urbanism in Portugal. As in a laboratory, during the XX century, Restelo constituted a “test tube” to multiple architectural experiences and unfinished urban interventions. While from Paris arrived the contributions from Institut d'Urbanisme; from Le Corbusier and the Charter of Athens, the desire to reach the modernity and follow a new “urban catechism”; and from the scientific research in Architecture and Urbanism, elaborated in the Construction and Housing Division from the Portuguese National Laboratory of Civil Engineering, came the opportunity to put into practice the knowledge (theoretical and empirical) acquired in this laboratory and apply it at Restelo.
