Location and building of architectural and landscape reference. Built in what would have been the outskirts of Lisbon at the time, on old farms, olive groves and alleyways. An area boosted by the Estado Novo, with well-differentiated and organized residential areas, where green spaces abound, resulting in a harmonious and spacious urbanization, valued by the remains of the Aqueduct of the old Quinta de São João da Panasqueira. An innovative design of space with specific delimitations for pedestrians and vehicles, plenty of green areas designed from scratch, great sun exposure.
This neighborhood represents a significant milestone in the history of urbanism and Portuguese architecture in the city of Lisbon. A modernist approach that was quite advanced for the time, both in terms of geometric construction and in terms of the creation of green spaces and the radial layout of the streets. The project that began in the 1960s aimed to create a “city within a city”, an interactive and self-sufficient community. Strongly rooted in the principles of modernism, valuing functionality, comfort, efficiency, ratified by the Charter of Athens. Those who lived and live in Olivais know that this concept has prevailed and persists over time, today even stronger and more complete, in infrastructure.
Olivais has increasingly attracted young families and professionals, partly due to the cost-benefit ratio when compared to other central areas of Lisbon. The supply of larger homes, the presence of green areas and accessibility are also factors that make the neighborhood more valued and attractive.
