Architect Carvalho Araújo
Nestled in the charming town of Vila do Conde, Portugal, The Lince Santa Clara Historic Hotel & Spa is a remarkable fusion of history and contemporary luxury. Originally a 14th-century monastery, this iconic structure has been meticulously transformed into a 5-star hotel by the renowned architect Carvalho Araújo. Preserving the grandeur of its past while seamlessly incorporating modern elements, the hotel stands as a testament to timeless elegance.
The restoration project masterfully retained the monastery’s historic features, such as the majestic stone archways, serene cloisters, and the imposing façade, creating a unique ambiance that honors its heritage. At the same time, carefully curated contemporary design elements infuse the space with sophistication and comfort, offering an unparalleled experience for guests seeking both tranquility and refinement.
Our company had the privilege of contributing to this extraordinary transformation by supplying the furniture for the hotel’s common areas, both indoors and outdoors, as well as the luxurious spa. Each piece was thoughtfully selected to complement the architectural vision, enhancing the serene and inviting atmosphere of the hotel. Our commitment to quality craftsmanship and design excellence ensured that the furniture not only blended seamlessly with the historic charm but also provided modern comfort and durability.
The Lince Santa Clara Historic Hotel & Spa is more than just a place to stay—it is a journey through time, where history and contemporary luxury coexist in perfect harmony. We are honored to have played a role in bringing this vision to life, creating spaces where guests can relax, unwind, and immerse themselves in an extraordinary setting.
