Nuno Tavares da Costa (1975, Lisboa) is an architect and a researcher. He studied Architecture at FA-UTL and holds a PhD in Architecture of Contemporary Metropolitan Territories from ISCTE-IUL, with a thesis on the genealogy of Paulo Mendes da Rocha's thinking, elaborated through the study of the new National Carriage Museum, a project which he coordinated. He has been a Senior Project Architect at Bak Gordon Arquitectos since the studio foundation in 2002. Over more than two decades of licensed practice, he planned, designed, managed, and ensured on-site supervision of more than 50 projects (some award-winning), in the areas of housing, education, and public equipment, both in Portugal and abroad. He is also an Assistant Professor at ISMAT and an integrated PhD researcher at DINÂMIA’CET-IUL, in the group Cities and Territories. His main interest lies in architecture as a reasoning process, reconciling practice and research. His studies address the relations between architecture and construction practice with the questions of history and consciousness (ethics), with a particular interest in Europe and Brazil, addressing those related to expressions of resistance, insurgency, or intellectual disobedience, as criticism and political commitments for cultural change.
