The architect
Marta Geraldes Naor
I graduated with a Master's degree in Architecture and Urbanism from Instituto Superior Técnico in Lisbon in 2018. My career began abroad, working in interior architecture and design on large-scale corporate offices, including projects for Motorola Solutions.
On returning to Portugal, I chose to focus on the regional architecture of the Alentejo, developing residential and small-scale tourism projects rooted in the local landscape and building traditions.
Working with a construction company in 2020–2021 gave me first-hand experience of construction methods, site challenges, budgeting, contracts and client relationships. I established my independent practice in 2021, gradually expanding from smaller projects and building regularisation to larger residential and tourism developments.
Today, my approach combines design sensitivity with practical construction knowledge, supporting clients from the earliest stages of a project through to its execution.
