Fuzeta: A Unique Fishing Village
The current thesis is about the urban and architectonical evolution of the maritime village of Fuzeta, in Algarve (Portugal). Founded by fishermen, this village stands out by its regular urbanism and a housing typology relatively uniform with unknown origins, different from the rest of Algarve’s urban settlements.

Erudite vaults by anonymous builders: The vaulted houses of Fuzeta (Eng/Nld.)
This article characterizes, analyzes and compares the types of brick vaulted houses in Fuzeta. The research conducted indicates that these anonymous constructions were nourished by an erudite source, the Church of Nossa Senhora do Carmo, which was built at the same time and the builders shared the knowledge, blurring the boundaries between vernacular and erudite.
