Generally used to refer to the study of the Earth’s crust – or, in architecture, for the analysis and understanding of structural and morphological conditions of built forms – tectonics is a key analytical lens in architectural discourse. With their diversity in formal approaches, it is through the understanding of tectonics in each work that the architecture firm Menos é Mais Arquitectos (Cristina Guedes, Francisco Vieira de Campos) finds the expressive strength of their works. Since 1994, the Porto-based architects have pursued the ability to do more and better with less, seeking to balance the “economy” of means with the “richness” in the materiality and emotional involvement of the users.
