LX CARMO HOTEL II

“Lisbon is a living postcard. It’s art in motion. The swallows keep coming. They hover, stay, love, and then depart again. The jacarandas bloom twice. The hills cut through the sky. The houses are the eternal painting of Maluda. Up high, the Carmo. Which needs a new dawn… To open the windows, to reveal itself, and let go…
Lisbon, restless, says to you: Oh, Carmo! Come on, lad. Bring me your dawn. I wait for you!”

Lx Carmo Hotel arises from the need for renewal and adaptation to the new demands and tastes of customers, essentially international, who visit Lisbon. The renovation was not merely aesthetic but above all functional, seeking to address visible weaknesses. We named the intervention “New Dawn of Carmo” because of the relevance the building had during the April revolution and the search for a new identity. The rooms are living postcards, generators of memories, evoking Portuguese art. The poem we wrote is the result of what the new dawn means, of the relationship between freedom and the Lusitanian sea. The sculpture is by Iva Viana.
