Ventura Terra therefore included rectangular articulated blocks, using new materials for the time (iron and tile) and a composition that did not include closed corridors in favour of halls open to the patio and exterior galleries, and multiple recreational spaces.

The lyceum of Camões was constructed to substitute the old
National Lyceum of Lisbon, created in 1902, and inadequate for the teaching needs and number of students. At the time of its inauguration there was a general consensus that the building
