Hoormem
It was Horst Rittel, a German design theorist and university professor, who once said that “Softness, as an expression of aesthetics, has the power to improve our lives”.

Hotel Hércules
In the valley where the neighbourhood of Hercules nestles, no new worlds have been invented; instead, it is the patina of time that reveals the magic of reality. -
Rina Lovko
Rina Lovko is the mastermind behind her eponymous studio. Creative director, designer and lead architect, her approach to design is rooted in the aesthetics of minimalism, organic forms and natural colours, combining conciseness when creating harmonious and functional spaces, realising the balance of the elements. The alignment of simplicity and complexity is the key to her work, represented in multiple projects and ambiences. -

Jacqueline
Painter, sculptor, ceramicist, stage designer, poet and play-wright. Pablo Picasso was known for the multidisciplinary nature of his art, as well as for the many relationships he had.

Villa Theatro
Through the renaissance of an iconic space in the heart of the city of Braga, Villa Theatro emerges, a building designed in 1922, which enhances the heritage of the architect Moura Coutinho, architect of the well-known Theatro Circo building — also on the same avenue — and who provided the inspiration for the name chosen. -
The Chosen One
This is the story of love at a distance consummated in the landscape overlooking the River Douro.
