José Maria Lopo Prata's TI-Telecommunications Institute at the University of Aveiro showcasing a blend of composite materials and brickwork with prominent columns on the campus. José Maria Lopo Prata's TI-Telecommunications Institute at the University of Aveiro showcasing a modern academic building with a sleek glass façade and innovative structural design elements. Joaquim Oliveira and José Maria Lopo Prata's design of the Department of Biology II and TI-Telecommunications Institute at the University of Aveiro, showcasing modern urban design with expansive glass façades, surrounded by well-maintained lawns and grass-covered land lots on the campus.

A compact, two-storey square with a central courtyard, clad in brick. Its modular order and strong independence in the landscape, especially near the lagoon, show a deliberate contrast to the flowing horizontalism of the first plan. It reinforces the emergence of freestanding institutional typologies.
