About Clanet&Brito
Clanet&Brito is a cross-disciplinary research/design studio based in Porto, founded by Alice Clanet-Hallard and Edgar Brito. Its activities cover the fields of architecture, art and structures. For each project the studio seeks to articulate design and economy of means, suggesting a delicate but strong balance between ideas and processes, form and structure, context and materials. They were the winners of the first edition of the “Sommer Pavillion” international competition in Cascais, 2018, with a proposal named “Suspended Gravity”.
