Since 2017 we have finished 61 rooms in Lisbon and Porto — cafés, two bakeries, a record shop, and offices for people who were tired of grey carpet.
Every scheme starts with three colours and one rule about where they may go. We paint full-size samples on your wall before anything is ordered, because a swatch the size of a stamp has never told anyone the truth.
About the studio
Ninety square metres in Graça, painted a yellow that holds up under fluorescent light at seven in the morning and still looks warm at nine at night.
A furniture showroom where the walls had to disappear behind the stock — so we made them one deep green and let the products be loud instead.
Thirty desks and one rule: no meeting room without daylight. The orange is on the furniture, not the walls, so it can be moved when the team grows.
Cream and butter yellow, benches deep enough to sit sideways, and a counter height set by the owner's shoulders rather than a standard.
Layout, seating counts, lighting and the whole colour scheme — plus the unglamorous half: extraction routes, acoustic panels and a counter your staff can work behind for ten hours.
Nobody has ever asked us to make a room quieter after living in it.
Quick answers to what people ask before the first visit. Anything missing, write to us — we answer the same day.
People photograph the room and post it without us asking. That has done more for us than the ads we used to buy.
First conversation is free and takes about an hour, on site if you already have keys. You leave with three colours and an honest number.
