Welcome to Garcia Marques Design
Where creativity, craftsmanship, and passion converge to transform spaces into living works of art.
As the founder of Garcia Marques Design, I've embraced design as a way of life since the very beginning, and it's a journey I'm committed to until the end.
With a background spanning over three decades in Communication Design, I've now dedicated my expertise to the realms of interior design and architecture. At Garcia Marques Design, we believe in the power of details, the beauty of construction steps, and the importance of understanding the "how" and "why" behind every aspect of our work.
Geometry, texture, and substance are the guiding principles in our approach to conceptualizing spaces. We believe that every detail tells a story, shaping the environment and reflecting the unique narratives of those who inhabit it. Demolition isn't just about starting anew; it's about revealing the true soul of a place, honoring its history, and respecting its personality.
One of our recent projects in the picturesque neighborhood of Graça in Lisbon exemplifies our commitment to Architecture Storytelling. Working with a 1929 building and a 135m2 apartment in a state of disrepair, we faced the challenge of modernizing the space while preserving its original charm. Our renovation aimed to respect the apartment's personality while adapting it to the present, combining elements of the past with modern functionality and design.
In another endeavor, we had the privilege of collaborating with a forward-thinking company undergoing expansion. Tasked with designing new offices to accommodate 80 additional employees, we embraced the opportunity to bridge Portuguese and Japanese cultures through architecture. Drawing inspiration from the navigational routes of 16th-century Portuguese explorers to Japan, we transformed the entrance into a welcoming homage to history and heritage.
At Garcia Marques Design, we understand that design isn't just about aesthetics—it's about communication. In a corporate setting, the design of spaces can influence productivity, comfort, and a sense of belonging. That's why we approach every project with meticulous attention to detail, using design elements to create familiar and functional environments.
Join us on a journey where every project is a testament to our passion for design and our dedication to exceeding expectations. Whether it's a home renovation, interior design project, or architectural endeavor, Garcia Marques Design is your partner in turning dreams into reality.
