Telhal
a relaxing patio in a bustling city

Very close to the lively Avenida da Liberdade, a renovated apartment hides a patio where one can unwind, hear the sounds of water and breathe amongst the lush vegetation. The patterns of sun and shade give the owners refreshing days in the centre of the city of Lisbon.




The terracotta floor and pots contrasting with the pools' green tiles help create a soothing, crafted atmosphere. Plants were carefully chosen according to the exposure, adaptability to the conditions and graphic interest. There is an area of shade planting with big green leaves which grow tall against the high walls and an area of sun where plants flower through all the summer.
