Bathed by the foam of the waves, slivers of Atlantic streets lead to romantic chalets and stately homes. This is Foz do Douro. It's in the heart of this ocean-side neighbourhood, that is so conducive to escaping reality, that the Porto Arts Club can be found; a private club dedicated to culture, art and contemporary experiences that celebrate thoughtfulness and authenticity.
The building has been meticulously renovated by the Masslab architecture studio, maintaining its original fragmented layout and density of memory, creating multiple connections and paths. Indeed, these settings are designed to inspire a wealth of experiences of sharing, reflection and creativity.
The complex houses a set of five one- and two-bedroom apartments at its core, in a style that generates a luminous serenity in shades of pale pink, dove grey and warm sand. The club offers many possibilities for meeting and stimulation, from cosy meeting rooms and informal lounges to more generous spaces ideal for exhibitions, conversations, live performances, workshops and masterclasses.

Outside, every corner seems to provide a setting for working lunches that prioritise Portuguese cuisine and local, seasonal ingredients, and film screenings or performances under the starry sky.
