TransforMar was a two week project aimed to create a intergenerational meeting point for Cova do Vapor: a playground for kids; a multipurpose hall to help the Biblioteca do Vapor develop its activity with the inhabitants; a comfortable bench to seat, talk and enjoy the stunning view and a path to improve the accessibility of the site.
A process of experimentation involving a carpentry and building workshop, environmental sensibilization, games, festive lunches, poetry, yoga, surf, and so on!
Colectivo Warehouse took part in the construction of the equipment and, in collaboration with Samuel Boche, supported all the volunteers and participants by tutoring them in this phase of the project.

Inspired from the creativity of the locals, the genuine DIY ethic and to have discovered a community that still lives up to its name, EDA and Constructlab (ex-EXYZT) decided to self-initiate Casa do Vapor, a support structure to the local association, that can absorb various possibilities to serve local initiatives.
Its various structures have accommodated an open air classroom, a public library, a kitchen, a bike-workshop, a skate-ramp, a playground and a pizza-oven. The collective became part of the local community for four months and an exchange of ideas and exercises in collectivity took place. Casa do Vapor was built out of reused wood from the construir juntos project in Guimarães ECC 2012.
The construction was simple and welcomed participation from both kids and grown-ups. Feeling sympathy with the lack of external support, which is everyday reality in the village, the locals became even more invested in this project. Due to building restrictions, the installations could only be temporary. However, Casa do Vapor became a ‘common’ in its own right that survives.
