The hotel we designed, Imperial Flow, is more than just a destination — it’s an experience that brings together modern innovation and the timeless beauty of Persian heritage. From the very first moment you step into the lobby, you’re greeted with a blend of fluid, futuristic forms inspired by Zaha Hadid’s architecture.

The house is called Casa da Ria as it is near the Alvor Estuary, over which it has panoramic and ever changing views due to the varying tides. The plot is extensive and slopes steeply to the north-west, where the wide views open up to the east and south and the light intensifies. Here, the outdoor spaces and shadows become more appealing.

The house is conceived as a monolithic volume with refined geometry, suspended over a steeply sloping topography. Access is through an intermediate level, via a recessed entrance in a completely blank façade, which reinforces the perception of mass and opacity in contrast with the lightness of the main volume.

Two emblematic properties located in historic neighborhoods—Casa Amate 61 and Casa Amate 62—offer an authentic experience that blends vernacular architecture, Art Deco aesthetics, local craftsmanship, and curated activities for travelers, digital nomads, and locals seeking cultural connection and contemporary comfort.
This villa is a conceptual fusion of Pahlavi-era architecture and contemporary Iranian design—an imagined collaboration between a prominent mid-20th-century architect and a present-day minimalist. Inspired by the grandeur, symmetry, and symbolic power of that historical period.
