Peripheries of the Center

“Peripheries of the Center” explores ways of motivating Lisbon residents to return to the city center and sustainably reconnect with the historical places that have been overpopulated by tourists, while still acknowledging the socioeconomic relevance of tourism. It identifies the popular traditions of Lisbon, examines the impact of mass tourism and explores city branding strategies to appeal to the sense of identity and belonging.

The project proposes a nontouristic guidebook that builds on the concept of “contrasts” to show the disparity between calm places, with cultural and historical value, and the nearby crowded touristic attractions. The visual narrative is combined with extracts from literature that point out an alternative city.
