Head office, Lisbon
About us
PROMONTORIO
is a full-service design
firm founded by
Paulo Martins-Barata,
Joao Luis Ferreira,
Paulo Perloiro, Pedro
Appleton and Joao
Perloiro, that began in
1990 in Lisbon as an
experimental studio, and
grew into a practice of
over 60 architects, urban
planners, landscape
architects, interior
designers, product
designers and
graphic designers.
Our process springs from
a dynamic and focused
design culture that fosters
collaboration above all.
This cohesive and interactive
structure enables us to deal
with large and complex
projects both in terms
of design and programme.
PROMONTORIO has
accomplished a wide range
of buildings from schools,
museums and cultural
institutions, to housing,
offices, hotels and retail.
We have offices in Portugal,
Mozambique and Qatar
and partnerships in Algeria,
Angola, Brazil, Russia,
Saudi Arabia, Scandinavia,
Spain, Switzerland and
the UAE. However, rather
than geographically, we are
organized in practice teams,
ensuring that each project
benefits from the expertise
of our most talented people.
In addition to our
international partnerships,
we have developed strategic
associations with consultants
from an array of experience
that includes: Acoustics,
Environmental Analysis,
Infrastructure & IT Systems,
Life Support Systems (for
live exhibits), Lighting
Design, MEP, Multimedia,
Quantity Surveying & Cost
Management, Structural,
Sustainability (for both
buildings and infrastructure),
Transport and Traffic, all
of which come together to
provide a solid hands-on
experience and offer
a holistic design
perspective.

Hospitality
In designing destinations,
we recognize the importance
of the total guest experience.
Hospitality design is not
merely about architecture;
it embraces the guests’
every encounter with the
space, from booking the
stay to bidding the valet
goodbye. This strategy has
proven worthy not only for
urban hotels or resorts, but
also for the repositioning
and renovation of outdated
structures.

At PROMONTORIO we
know the effort hoteliers put
into bringing guests the best
conceivable travel experience
and we know our job is more
than just defining the box.
It is about investigating the
needs of our clients, and
uncovering imaginative,
industry-specific solutions
that ensure your operational
efficiency and promote the
return on your investment.
