Carrilho is indisputably a contemporary architect. His mindset, language and program are unequivocally rooted in the contemporary world. His architectures house the contemporary man, his needs and his complexity. Nevertheless, the contemporary substance, body and material of the new elements he apposes to the ancient ones are intimately classical, and recount his peculiar approach to historical and archaeological pre-existences, based on the patient interpretation of the traces of the past and focused on the reconstruction of their form and meaning.

Abstract

Carrilho is indisputably a contemporary architect. His mindset, language and program are unequivocally rooted in the contemporary world. His architectures house the contemporary man, his needs and his complexity. Nevertheless, the contemporary substance, body and material of the new elements he apposes to the ancient ones are intimately classical, and recount his peculiar approach to historical and archaeological pre-existences, based on the patient interpretation of the traces of the past and focused on the reconstruction of their form and meaning.
