Domingues, A. (2009). Street of the Road. Porto: Dafne Editora

“‘Street of the Road’ is a concept that emerges on the debris of the double loss of the “city” and the “countryside” and the conventional opposition between “urban” and “rural”.

More than a place, ‘Street of the Road’ emerges as a result of the relationship, of the movement. The intense flow that runs through it is its best asset and its own justification. Without flow there is no exchange nor relationship, which is the primordial genesis of the old city.
