8 projects for 8 competitions constitute the grounds for this book on ARX Portugal’s early work. Dealing mostly with projects that were never built, conceived within amazingly short time spans, this small book is essentially on the architects’ main focus for each designing process: the development of a central idea. As such, being a persistent research subject for ARX, this reflection goes further into the world of possibilities set within the representation of Ideas itself. A Second Nature contains texts by ARX Portugal and an introduction by Fréderic Levrat (architect and professor).
