‘Related Paths 4 Architects’, an exhibition of Portuguese architects in Japan, seems to address Japanese culture itself. Its subject is a group of architects whose work has informed aspects of Western culture since the beginning of the 20th century. Following the exhibition, this book showcases the work of four Lisbon-based architecture studios. Their projects address topics such as heritage, reuse, landscape, and more. The four studios display various points of contact in terms of how they approach architectural culture and the places they operate. In this reflection, a dialogue and cooperation is sought between the two countries, with the discipline of architecture as the common territory.
