Project concept

For this project we have been asked how we would bring Portuguese culture into a city like Manchester. This will later be translated into an existing building. Our first area of research is to create a small film based on our own findings of Portuguese culture such as music, dance, food, Architecture etc to create a certain mood that we would like to portray to any audience.

celebrations/festival

Most festivals or celebrations in Portugal begin in June and carry on through out the rest of the year. Here are some of the festivals that I found most interesting such as the Fotki tray festival, Desfohlada and my favourite the Quiemas das Fitas festival which is an annual burning of ribbons celebration for graduating students all over portugal, each ribbon depending on the colour represents each department within the university, people then line the streets partying with extra entertainment like floats and performances by famous bands.
