This project series documents the Conjunto Habitações, Remodelação de Duas Habitações and BAC – Banco de Arte Contemporãnea in Quinta da Palmeira, Evora, Portugal. While the records were held in the office's archives, this project was assigned the number 66/90 and was further divided as follows : 66/90 A/B Conjunto Habitações; 66/90 [B] Remodelação de Duas Habitações; and 66/90 C BAC, Banco de Arte Contemporãnea. The office assigned the date 1995 to this project.

Sociedade Hoteleira Do Arez contracted Siza to restore two existing houses, construct seven new houses to join to the Hotel da Cartuxa, and later, transform a warehouse building into an art museum. The BAC was not realized.
