After living in a large house for more the twenty years, the client approached us to help with her moving into a new three bedroom penthouse in Lisbon, Portugal. The challenge was to edit her large collection of art and antiques to insure that the space looked fresh. Once the “cut” was made, the design process unfolded with the items that were to be incorporated into the new space. A modern staircase that leads to the common areas dominates the lower level entrance. A D. Maria commode presides over the foyer and is topped by an 18th century Brazilian oratory. Flanking the commode are 17th Century Buffoon prints of tropical birds. The adjacent living room is classical with brown and neutral tones. Three large 18th century Cusco paintings, purchased during a trip to Peru in the early 90s, are hung over two D. Jose commodes. A modern glass coffee table completes the seating area. The dining room has a very contemporary feel. A glass-topped dining table with travertine base is mixed with D. Maria style dining chairs. Over a travertine floating console, a large tapestry by Concessa Colaço brings back the colors of Brazil, a country where the owner previously lived. The guest bedroom features two twin beds and a collage by Ulisses Bahia while the master bedroom, painted in a serene blue, is furnished with an antique Portuguese D. José Bed with the original 19th century Portuguese bedspread. The overall result of this Lisbon Penthouse is a décor where the contemporary space seamlessly blends with the antiques and treasured objects of the owner.

Chef Kiko’s second restaurant in the Portuguese capital of Lisbon is located in the prestigious neighborhood of Principe Real. It opened in 2014 and is minutes away from Lisbon’s downtown and main tourism attractions. The concept grew out of Chef Kiko’s trip “eat the world” where Kiko and his wife literally went around the world to discover different cuisines and find inspiration for their life in the world of food. Before entering, one is struck by the eye-catching exterior doors and windows. They were inspired by M.C. Escher’s woodblock “sky and water” and are made of laser cut cold rolled steel. In the original design by Escher, fishes are presented at the base of the drawing and as they progress upward, they morph into birds. Old Portuguese fish markets where white “Castelo Branco” marble was traditionally used inspired the interior. The same white marble is used throughout the restaurant: A large round marble counter dominates the space and opens onto the kitchen where a marble tub, filled with ice, displays the catch of the day. The walls are covered in white tile and white marble is also used at the continuous blue and white cushioned banquette. The white tile and marble are a sharp contrast to the blue and white patterned hydraulic floor tiles. Suspended from the ceiling is a giant Octopus, specially created for the space by artist Joao Parrinha. The size and color of this sea creature creates a dramatic contrast to the cool blue and white color scheme and it quickly became the talk of Lisbon!
