“水箱塔坐落在水处理站，它也是一个观景塔，是为南葡萄牙的 Nova Aldeia da Luz计划的一个大胆的基础设施。这个独特的元素坐落在阿连特茹荒芜的地形中，通过一个实用主义的、严厉的功能细节设计进程，我们试图使项目变成现代的乌托邦。可见的、裸露在外的混凝土强调了这种形象。然而项目的设计却是很矛盾的。它令人回想起勒·柯布西耶在Unite d’Habitation中设计的烟囱，但是它现在矗立在地面上，就像整个建筑物被埋在了地下一样。这暗示着重大运动对现代运动更加激进的理念的远离，对融入新村庄的建设过程的接近。项目拒绝谦卑的博学文化和专横的流行口味之间的对立，最重要的是，这个水库是一个有效的、宽容的地方。”

"The tower at the Water Treatment Station, which also acts as a viewing tower, is a bold infrastructure planned for Nova Aldeia da Luz (Southern Portugal). This unique element in the arid landscape of Alentejo pursues the modern utopia through a pragmatic and rigorously functional detailing process.The visible bare concrete emphasises this imagery. However, its design could not be more paradoxical. It recalls the chimney of Le Corbusier’s Unite d’Habitation, but it now stands on the ground, suggesting that the entire building has been buried. This is a metaphor that demonstrates a significant movement away from the more radical theories of the Modern Movement and towards the process of participation involved in the construction of the new village.

Rejecting the antagonism between a shamefacedly erudite culture and the tyranny of popular taste, above all, this reservoir is a place of active tolerance."
