In the context of the Architecture 3.0 project - Promotion of New InternationaliSation Models, the Serralves Foundation identified the need to encourage the development of architectural solutions that will help overcome the lack of exhibition spaces in various parts of Portugal, or that serve as an appropriate complement, albeit of a temporary nature, to existing exhibition spaces.

The Foundation therefore organised a call for ideas for an exhibition pavilion, in order to contribute to dissemination of culture and art, making them accessible to a wider public, in particular through the promotion of exhibitions of the Serralves Collection. Simultaneously, the goal was to collaborate in processes of territorial valorisation and enhancement through implementation of leading artistic projects.

The ten best classified projects will be presented in an exhibition to be held in the Serralves Foundation, that aims to foster debate about innovative solutions.
