PROJECTS BY INFINITO LIVING
We are a design bureau from Lisbon. Infinito Living creates homes one longs to return to: spaces where beauty and utility don’t compete but amplify each other, elevating life quality and long‑term property value.

We turn an idea into an address — from architecture and interiors to renovations and construction — so that, on the right day, the door opens to a life already in place.
Vila do Tejo Renewal
In the heart of Lisbon's historic Alfama district, an early 20th-century townhouse stood as a relic of faded glory—cramped, dark, and disconnected from its Tagus River views, where the original Pombaline structure had been altered by decades of piecemeal additions, turning a once-vibrant family home into a labyrinth of underused spaces. Our team at Infinito Living embarked on a sensitive renovation, stripping away intrusive extensions to reveal the building's inherent bones while introducing a light-filled atrium that connected ground-level gardens to an upper terrace overlooking the river, blending restored azulejo tiles with sleek concrete elements for a seamless fusion of heritage and modernity. The result?

A flowing 180m² residence that amplified natural light by 60%, optimized spatial flow for family life, and boosted property value through enduring, context-responsive design—proving how architecture can breathe new life into timeless foundations.

Key Outcomes:
  1. Structural Harmony: Preserved 80% of original features while enhancing seismic resilience with subtle reinforcements.
  2. Spatial Transformation: Created multi-level indoor-outdoor connections, increasing usable outdoor area by 40%.
  3. Sustainable Integration: Incorporated passive solar design and local materials, reducing energy needs by 35%.
Serra Sanctuary Furnishings
In a sleek, newly built villa within Lisbon's prestigious suburban enclave of Cascais, the modernist shell gleamed with potential but felt devoid of intimacy—vast open-plan areas yearning for layers of texture and light to soften the clean geometry and foster a sense of lived-in luxury amid rolling hills. Infinito Living curated an exquisite FF&E palette, procuring from elite ateliers: Roche Bobois for sculptural armchairs in supple leather and oak that anchor conversation zones with effortless elegance; Lalique glass sconces and vases diffusing soft, jewel-toned glows that echo the villa's serene horizons; and Fornasetti's whimsical ceramic tableware and wall panels with celestial motifs adding playful artistry to neutral palettes, elevating the 220m² space into a personal haven of refined whimsy. Our end-to-end process—trade negotiations, streamlined European logistics, and meticulous white-glove installation—ensured flawless harmony, with every piece positioned to enhance flow and timeless appeal.

Key Outcomes:
  1. Layered Luxury: Roche Bobois and Lalique selections added 40% more warmth, transforming stark modernism into inviting focal points.
  2. Streamlined Delivery: Consolidated procurement reduced timelines by 30%, with Fornasetti accents installed onsite for bespoke precision.
  3. Personalized Harmony: The integrated decor amplified spatial cohesion, creating a suburban retreat that feels eternally sophisticated and soulful.

Ribeira Riverside Retreat
In Porto's Ribeira district, a compact apartment overlooked the Douro River but suffered from fragmented layouts and outdated fixtures—narrow rooms divided by heavy partitions, dim lighting from small windows, and worn wooden floors that muffled the vibrant pulse of the waterfront below, leaving a once-cozy riverside nest feeling isolated and inefficient for contemporary living. Infinito Living envisioned and executed a full interior design overhaul, reconfiguring the 120m² space with open-plan zones that maximized river views through enlarged arched openings, incorporating restored azulejo wall panels for authentic Portuguese charm alongside minimalist cabinetry and recessed LED lighting to flood the area with natural and ambient glow, while selecting sustainable cork flooring and neutral textiles to enhance flow and acoustic warmth. The transformation unfolded seamlessly from concept sketches to on-site implementation, with phased construction minimizing disruption and client input ensuring a personalized blend of historic nod and modern functionality.

Key Outcomes:
  1. Optimized Layout: Removed 70% of partitions to create fluid living-dining-kitchen areas, increasing perceived space by 40% and directly connecting interiors to Douro vistas.
  2. Heritage Revival: Integrated original azulejo elements with contemporary finishes, boosting cultural resonance while improving energy efficiency through better insulation and lighting—reducing utility costs by 25%.
  3. Livable Elegance: The realized design elevated daily comfort for a young family, with custom millwork and soft furnishings turning the apartment into a serene urban oasis that honors Porto's maritime legacy.
Coimbra Suburban Renewal
In a quiet suburb of Coimbra, an aging early-2000s family home nestled among rolling hills felt stifled by its dated layout—chopped-up rooms with poor insulation, inefficient heating systems, and a fragmented flow that disconnected indoor spaces from the surrounding greenery, turning what could be a peaceful retreat into a functional but uninspiring shell for a growing household. Infinito Living led a comprehensive renovation, meticulously dismantling non-structural walls to open up the 150m² footprint into fluid, light-enhancing zones while reinforcing the original concrete frame with energy-efficient upgrades, including insulated double-glazing windows and underfloor heating; we revived exposed timber accents with fresh lacquering and integrated subtle stone elements from local quarries to echo Coimbra's architectural heritage, all while coordinating licensed contractors for phased work that adhered to Portuguese building codes. The project wrapped in six months with zero major setbacks, delivering a resilient, adaptable home ready for modern living without compromising its suburban charm.

Key Outcomes:
  1. Enhanced Efficiency: Improved insulation and systems cut energy use by 40%, creating a comfortable microclimate that blends seamlessly with the Coimbra hills.
  2. Spatial Liberation: Opened layouts increased usable space by 30%, fostering family connectivity with views to private gardens and natural light throughout.
  3. Value Appreciation: The renewed structure, with heritage-inspired details, elevated market appeal by 35%, proving renovations as a smart investment in enduring quality.

Cascais Coastal Haven
In a serene suburb of Cascais, an empty plot amid pine-shaded hills presented a blank slate for a dream family residence—prime coastal location with Atlantic breezes, yet challenging topography and zoning regulations demanding innovative engineering to integrate a seamless home with outdoor amenities like a private pool. Infinito Living oversaw the ground-up construction of a contemporary 300m² single-family villa, from site preparation and foundation pouring to framing and finishing: we collaborated with certified engineers to navigate local permits, erecting a steel-reinforced structure with earthquake-resistant design, large glass facades for panoramic ocean views, and a saltwater infinity pool cascading toward the horizon; sustainable features like solar panels, rainwater harvesting, and native landscaping ensured eco-conscious building while adhering to Cascais' aesthetic guidelines for harmony with the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. The nine-month build concluded with rigorous quality inspections and client walkthroughs, yielding a turnkey home ready for coastal living.

Key Outcomes:
  1. Seamless Integration: The villa's design elevated the plot's 800m² by 50% in usable space, with the pool and terraces fostering indoor-outdoor flow amid Cascais' natural beauty.
  2. Sustainable Excellence: Incorporated green tech reduced energy demands by 45%, enhancing long-term value and environmental footprint in this premium suburb.
  3. Premium Realization: Completed on schedule and under budget by 10%, the project delivered a luxurious, family-oriented haven that captures Cascais' elite lifestyle essence.
