Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Portuguese architect Maria Jo\u00e3o Zagallo has just seen her house in Chocas beach, in Nampula province northern, Mozambique, distinguished with the International Architecture Award 2022, Private Houses category, awarded by The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design and the European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies, \u2018Expresso\u2019 reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be the only Portuguese prize-winner, alongside international architecture studios such as Zaha Hadid Architects, Adjaye Associates and Shigeru Ban Architects, among others, is an honour,\u201d Maria Jo\u00e3o Zagallo told Expresso.<\/p>\n

Since last Friday, September 9th (until the 25th of this month), images of The Palm 313 in Mozambique and other awarded projects will be on display in an exhibition called \u2018The City and The World\u2019 at The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies in Athens, Greece.<\/p>\n

Thirty-eight year old Maria Jo\u00e3o Zagallo, who has recently divided her activities between Portugal and Mozambique, told Expresso that she was surprised by the recognition, saying \u201cI am still young, and still have a long way to go\u201d. In fact, the architect started her career very early, with the signing of her first project \u2013 a hotel development, also in Mozambique \u2013 at the age of 25.<\/p>\n

About the Praia das Chocas work now awarded, Maria Jo\u00e3o Zagallo notes that it is a large-scale project. \u201cWe are talking about a house next to the beach with an area of 2,000 square metres. And built more than 2000 kilometres from Maputo, in a remote place reachable only by dirt roads,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Access was so difficult, in fact, that practically all of the first order of large-scale glass panels \u2013 the house is made of transparencies \u2013 arrived at the construction site broken.<\/p>\n

Despite the dimensions of the house, Maria Jo\u00e3o Zagallo says that she sees it as \u201csomething light, simple and minimalist\u201d. \u201cI actually think I\u2019ve been able to keep all my projects simple,\u201d she says. She mainly designs villas and hotels, \u201cbut always in this register of light and simplicity\u201d.<\/p>\n
