Location

Located in the Seixo urbanization, in the locality of São Mamede de Infesta e Senhora da Hora, in the municipality of Matosinhos, this green space is integrated into a housing complex. It is situated within an urban area, offering an oasis of tranquility in the heart of a residential zone.

Integrated Architecture

Designed in 1985 by architect José Pulido Valente, the design of this place is a remarkable example of how architecture can create harmony between the private and the public. The residential buildings were intelligently organized to enclose and enhance the common spaces. This innovative approach allowed for the creation of gathering areas that stand out for their richness and the sense of community they foster.

The Green Heart of the Complex

Between the residential blocks, a spacious and welcoming area unfolds. This central garden was designed to be a meeting and leisure point, characterized by extensive green areas, shaded spots, and pedestrian pathways. It offers various resting places, inviting lingering, and includes areas designed for recreation, making it a serene and functional place for all who frequent it. It is a testament to the vision of integrating nature and leisure into urban daily life.
