In the beginning of the year 2009 e|348 Arquitectura were commissioned for the Project of a Chapel honoring Santa Ana, in a small, triangular piece of land, in Sousanil, Santa Maria da Feira.

The brightly coloured new furniture give the library and large entrance hall a sparkling, musical red blaze.
