From Lisbon to Porto

During Expo’98 the Water Pavilion, run by the Exposition sponsor Unicer, captivated the public with an interactive exhibition showing the important role played by water, and thereby encouraging a rational and efficient use of this precious resource.

The building’s architecture was (and still is) surprising: a parallelepiped, angled and imbalanced. After the event in 1998 the structure was transferred to the City Park in Porto.
