Studioarte & Lusco Fusco Pair North African Design with Dynamic Contemporary Style

Inhabiting an ancient neighborhood, this beautifully curious home makes a bold and dramatic statement on the skyline. Inspired by the Moorish and Arabic influences of the region, it unites the architectural standards of the past with the present.

Located in the center of the old city of Silves, this contemporary villa reflects its historical surroundings with echoes of its Moorish past while remaining firmly modern. The white-washed exteriors resemble in scale and design the Islamic aesthetic and concept of privacy and self-containment while still enjoying amazing views of the city.

Designed by studioarte with interiors by Janneke de Bruijn at Lusco Fusco, the house is bright throughout and unfolds organically with everyday comforts and dynamic design. Furnished with local Portuguese art and design pieces, the interiors are light and fresh.

With two bedrooms over two floors, the house can accommodate up to four guests each with en-suite baths. A blend of simple comforts and sometimes edgy vintage modern design gives this house contemporary urban character.

The full kitchen and stunning lightbox lounge area are perfect for entertaining inside or above on the second-floor terrace equipped with sun loungers and an outdoor kitchen. 

With stunning views overlooking the town and surrounding countryside, this is the spot to dine and enjoy the sunsets. And finally, the “O patio das estrelas” (the star lounge), is a small hideaway located at the apex of the house created for hot summer nights or for outdoor sleeping and stargazing with amazing 360 degree views. 

THE ALGARVE'S MOORISH CITY

Situated along the Arade river, Silves is one of the oldest and most historically significant cities of the Algarve. From the ancient Moorish castle to the great cafes and outdoor markets, the village is compact and walkable to take it all in. 

This is also a great spot from which to explore the coast, the countryside and the Monchique mountain from where you'll have a view from the highest point in the Algarve.

BEST TIME TO VISIT: Summers are popular at the beaches but Fall is a quieter time to enjoy the city with less tourists
