The districts of Francos and Carvalhido now have two walls that reflect the realities of youth culture in urban environments.

Porto City Hall understands the cultural significance of street art. It means embracing youth culture in all its forms and bringing together different generations and cultures.

Mr Dheo and Hazul are the artists behind the visual art forms that will help change the perception on street culture.

"It promotes cultural heritage and contribute to its enrichment", it seeks to "raise people's awareness regarding urban art and mere visual noise", as Municipal Company Domus Social stresses.

This initiative will be replicated in other districts in the city.
