Good for your weekPrivate · Planned from your brief

Porto is smaller than Lisbon but its neighbourhoods change fast from one hill to the next. From your brief we choose four areas, from creative Bonfim and Cedofeita to Matosinhos by the sea or Gaia across the river.

We walk each one at a normal weekday rhythm, check transport to the centre, look at cafés where people work on laptops and talk honestly about rents, damp and winter light.
