Lisbon

Sofia Marin

Stylist and home-tour editor. Believes every room needs three lamps and one plant.

6 stories

Soft walls, three lamps and one re-covered chair. How we turned a room we walked through into a room we live in.

One room, a sleeping loft and eleven pots on the balcony. How Inês makes a small home feel generous.

Oak beams cleaned by hand, a wall of glass where the cart doors were, and a cottage garden from a field.

Stairs like a ladder, furniture through the window and every view of water. A tall, thin home made calm.

Ninety centimetres wide, sixty deep, and doors that close at six. The commute she does not have.

A stone floor, a rebuilt range, a pantry that stays cold and a table nobody could move.
