Alfragide Towers, Residential complex in Alfragide, Portugal.
The Alfragide Towers consist of three residential buildings with a four-leaf clover layout, connected by a two-level shopping center at ground level.
Construction of the towers started in 1968 and finished in 1974, under the direction of architects Conceição Silva and Tomás Taveira during Portugal's urbanization period.
The architectural design reflects British influences, particularly from James Stirling's Engineering Building at the University of Leicester, incorporating brutalist elements in Portuguese housing.
The complex includes an underground parking area, multiple residential layouts from single-story apartments to duplexes, and a shopping center with stores and cafes.
Each tower features a central core for services, with four subtowers branching outward, creating a distinctive clover-shaped footprint visible from above.
