На конкурс принимаются идеи по созданию нового музея фаду в Алфаме, одном из старейших районов Лиссабона. Фаду – традиционный португальский музыкальный стиль, который зародился более двух столетий назад. Музей должен не только стать архитектурным символом фаду, но и органично дополнить облик исторического района.

The Alfama is the oldest district of Lisbon, stretches from Sao Jorge Castle and the Tagus River remained, until the Arab domination, the only part of the town. Azulejos color the old town, once inhabited mostly by fishermen, with the charm of an area that still bears the scars of the violent earthquake recorded in the late eighteenth century.
Recent development policies have initiated a much-needed redevelopment, which involved some of the most important monuments in the area. These include the São Jorge Castle, the royal residence until the sixteenth century, it became today the viewpoint from which to enjoy the best views of the city. Walking through the streets of Lisbon's hard not to get carried away by the heat of fado, ancient folk art.
The competitors are requested to design the new MUseu do FAdo, the MUFA, replacing the previous built in 1850. We want to become an architectural symbol, capable of representing the tradition by becoming a reference point for the whole community. Revisit the roots to reshape the future: it is a significant step for the revitaliz ation of the Alfama.
