Designed by the architects, Nuno Teotónio Pereira and João Braula Reis, this building is located in the intersection between Rua Braamcamp and Rua Castilho. It received the Valmor Prize in 1971 – thus generating a major polemic, due to the building’s daring architectural lines that shocked a significant part of public opinion at the time.

It is an office building with commercial galleries on the lower floors. Its name “franjinhas” (little fringes) is due to the solution found by the architects in order to provide solar protection for the windows.
