GRAND OPENING RESTAURANT FORNO D'ORO
"Directly from Nepal, Tanka Sapkota and Rita Sita, offer Italian pizzas in 60 seconds, made on a golden oven designed by Cristina Santos Silva.
The owners of the already famous Come Prima, "The Yellow House" in Olival Street, wanted a golden oven in a black space, Cristina Santos Silva, as an excellent professional, offered them a golden oven in a completely blank space. The result could not be better, a welcoming, very bright and very interesting decorative detailed space.
The golden oven is coated with mosaic tiles up and down and allows to bake pizzas in 60 seconds, everything else is white with golden details. The tables with white lacquered top have a golden foot in bronze, the chairs with the seats padded and the walls are in bright white.
The light falls on the tables through white and golden lamps. Since the pizza is considered the sun of the plate, the plate bases are designed with decorative elements depicting the sol.
A simple but well thought design, full of details that make all the difference."
20 YEARS CHRISTOFLE

ROSES OF MY GARDEN - EXHIBITION TOPÁZIO 140 YEARS AT MUDE
The exhibition "Topázio- 140 years of Silver" is at MUDE - Museum of Design and Fashion until the 28th of March.
RTP visited the exhibition and spoke to the authors Cristina Santos Silva, Marco Sousa Santos, Dino Gonçalves and Toni Grilo.
RUPTUR OBJECT
Cristina Santos e Silva created a glass of Porto wine for Topázio, which is different through the innovation of the lines.
"It was with great enthusiasm that I accepted this challenge of Topázio to design a new collection.
The enthusiasm however, soon turned to apprehension when I realized I would have to develop a glass of Porto wine!
Reconcile the opinions of winemakers and "experts", subjecting myself to their "relentless" scrutiny, was an arduous achievement to be conquered ... Coordinate a new aesthetic, based on my training as an architect and the will to stir up the tradition of Topázio, would not be easy .
The idea of combining the architecture, presentt in my day-to-day, with the functionality of a glass led to the design of a deconstructed foot, seeming to defy the laws of physics, never neglected the ergonomics of the whole. "
