The building where Laura Alvim Cultural Center is located was built in 1910 for residential use. Today it is an important cultural center with cinemas, theater, café, bookstore and a gallery. Throughout its existence the building underwent several modifications and additions without having never undergone a transformation that affirmed its character of public use. The intervention project contemplates the renovation of the infrastructures of the two theaters in the house – the first with 187 seats and the other one with 49, as well as the design of the connecting walkway between the two buildings of the complex.
