The Pythagorean

Holiday Rental Description

From the main vein of the city, the Avenida de Liberdade, the beating heart of Lisbon is the Marquês de Pombal Square. Where mopeds whizz around its central column and the statue of the Marquis looks out towards the Tagus, you might be more inclined to look in another direction. Think bustling streets of cafés, shopping, and the lush Parque Eduardo VII, just four minutes from this apartment.

Lavishly decorated with a diverse range of textures and colours, this home echoes the vibrant atmosphere of the local area. We love the glossy parquet floors as you step inside, starting things off with a traditional vibe. But then geometry meets the natural world in the most stylish way.

The cacti are a welcoming feature alongside the sharp angles of the dining table and a desert triptych on the wall. Metal partitions with right-angled triangle cut-outs, black bamboo dining chairs, and a glass dining nook feel far from typical Portuguese interiors. Sip your morning coffee in this conservatory-like space, followed by fresh fruit juice on your private terrace at lunch, and a few glasses of douro on the sofa in the evening.
