Pulled from the oven just right. Trustworthy, fact-dense, deeply satisfying.
Summary
Design collective Luso collaborated with real estate company The Modern Spaces to create The Collector's Residence, a furnished townhouse in Lisbon showcasing how collectible Portuguese design can be integrated into everyday living spaces. The project features works by emerging Portugal-based designers and makers, demonstrating that high-quality, collectible design doesn't have to be reserved for museums but can function in practical, lived-in environments. The residence serves as a showcase for the Alba development, a former warehouse conversion in Lisbon's Marvila neighborhood.
