SAARANHA&VASCONCELOS

The Birth - 1985 saw the birth of SAARANHA&VASCONCELOS, architecture and interior design studio, at the hands of its young founding partners, which led to the creation and development of the SA&V brand. The Team – Throughout these 32 years, Carmo Aranha and Rosário Tello, together with their younger partners, Ana Camões and Francisca Perestrelo, have learnt that a good team is built through teaching, attention, patience, good sense, exigence and respect. But also through novelty and youth. That's why there's a constant presence of "New Blood", recently-qualified graduates with very different perspectives and experiences, who bring fresh capital to the brand. This committed and talented team makes it possible to maintain the SA&V brand as a symbol of creativity, quality and service at the right standard. The International Journey – The internationalisation of the SA&V brand has been going on for decades, but it was only in 2011 that it was systematised with the launch of SA&V Internacional, managed centrally from the Lisbon office, but which also has two other operational centres; Zurich, covering Europe and China and San Francisco for the US market. From this process, projects have already been carried out in Barcelona, Zurich, Boston and Chengdu in China. The studio's robustness offers added security, always an advantage when the decision is taken to venture into foreign markets. The Brand Today – SA&V is currently considered a top brand in the area of architecture and interior design, synonymous with creativity, exclusivity, sophistication, contemporaneity and a strong connection to art. Tailor-made projects, which focus on exceeding and personalising the dreams of those who seek them out, play a decisive role in placing the brand at the level it has achieved today. Attention to detail makes it an exemplary and easily identifiable brand. SA&V is clearly a brand that's ready for what the future has in store.
