Architectural Philosophy
Vessels of Light
The architecture of ALBA is defined by its relationship with the sun. Strategically placed openings and expansive glass surfaces allow light to travel through the spaces, reflecting off soft-textured walls to create an ever-changing atmosphere throughout the day. Here, architecture does not just provide shelter; it curates your experience of time and space.
The Vision
ALBA: A Sanctuary of Light and Materiality
Designed by architect Miguel Abecasis, ALBA is a collection of five distinguished townhouses in the heart of Marvila. Conceived as "vessels of light," these residences bridge the heritage of Lisbon’s industrial soul with the serenity of contemporary minimalist design.
Precision Engineering: Custom steel profiles by Forster (Switzerland) provide slim, elegant frames for seamless indoor-outdoor transitions.
Tactile Finishes: Seamless floors and walls finished with Marmorino by DIASEN lime plaster offer a soft, organic aesthetic together with advanced thermal and acoustic insulation.
Design Icons: Electrical systems by JUNG (Germany) and natural timber by Weitzer Parkett ensure durability and timeless sophistication.
The Art of Detail
We believe that true luxury is felt before it is seen. ALBA is a testament to uncompromising quality and "Quiet Luxury," featuring a curated selection of world-class materials and brands:
Materiality & Craftsmanship
The Evergreen Heart
Private Sanctuaries
At the core of each residence lies a private patio — an "Evergreen Heart" featuring our signature Magnolia tree. This secluded garden serves as a natural extension of the living space, a quiet retreat where nature and architecture coexist in perfect harmony.
