Tuesday some of us went to a conference in which Jose was speaking
at, about the social dimension of urban
regeneration and Arrebita! at Santa Casa da Misericordia do Porto! Those of
us who were not as confident with our Portuguese enjoyed the evening sun. We are continuing to work on the final new A!BOX designs and looking for
the last few suppliers. Always getting closer to starting on site!
On Thursday Jose gave a presentation in French with the help of Madalena
and Ruth from team 4 presenting Arrebita! to Centre
Calouste Gulbenkian in Paris. Where
we hope to show an image of Portugal that is positive and forward looking.

While we in team 5 worked away in the studio finalising the material for the A!BOX.
 |
| The external finish of the A!Box lets you personalise as you want and the interior will be very shiny! But we can’t reveal more information right now! |
Monday we met with all the Arrebita! architects and showed them our input on the
A!BOX and with their feedback we are getting ever closer to finishing the
final design. Don’t worrying, we will show you as soon as we have it!
After
some busy days trying to define the truly last version of the A!BOX (we hope
you’ll love it) we had a cultural rest where we got the
opportunity to listen to some local Fado singers.

Wednesday evening we joined a workshop
about structural refurbishment by NCREP. For those who don’t speak
Portuguese it was an opportunity to learn some Portuguese words and there were
some nice pictures.
