In the heart of Alentejo, an ancient palace from the 17th century was reborn under the name of Calipo. Behind its lime walls, the place displays a rare hospitality: between agritourism, art and architecture, an experience at the crossroads of landscape and gesture.
“
Recently restored, the estate has fourteen rooms and twenty-six apartments, opening onto the hills and olive trees. Eventually, a glamping space will complete the set. Each volume combines stone, lime, wood and concrete, in a fair balance between heritage and modernity. The lines are clean, the light omnipresent. Nothing is decorative: everything has been designed to regain a form of calm and evidence.
Calipo imagines itself as a creative ecosystem: artists invited in residence, shared meals on the farm, attention to living things down to the smallest detail. More than a hotel, it is a laboratory space, an attempt to combine beauty and simplicity, anchoring and openness. People come here for a retreat, an exploration, or simply to learn how to live differently.
We design and lead a learning expedition that goes through this place. You can also design it yourself with Agent A\lex.
