beautiful collection from a couple of interior designers 

In the very touristic Graça area, there is this heaven place, hidden from tourists. This café belongs to the theater da Garagem. It has an amazing view, the atmosphere is peaceful and with a lot of light. They don't have wifi if you plan to work there though..

On the Founder's Colletion building you can travel from Egyptian, Greco-Roman, Islamic to the Far East art and to the eighteenth-century French decorative arts. On the Modern Collection building some of the most important Portuguese modern artists from the 20th century. The library is perfect spot to study and the garden is very beautiful.

We found this beautiful store by accident while wandering around hilly Lisbon in the sunshine. A beautiful menagerie of vintage finds, curated designers, accessories and trinkets. Housed in a high-ceilinged, big windowed architectural treat. My perfect home (shop wise). I left with a Parisian summer dress in peacock tones, and a big smile. The staff were helpful and lovely, and coincidentally I had something in common with the gorgeous owner. We shared stories of graphic design and Leeds Art College—it really is a small world.

Small venue with the best concerts in town.
