Summary:Step into the lobby and its art that catches your eye. Since the launch of its first "Luxury, Art, and Design Weekend" in 2011, Martinhal has nurtured young, emerging talent through exhibitions and special commissions. Some of the most striking are by prominent street artist Bordallo II, known for transforming trash into animal-centric artwork to call out human consumption and its effects on the natural world. Martinhal Lisbon Oriente is the brand's second Lisbon property, complementing the smaller Martinhal Chiado that's located in a historie building in the city center. Since launching the flagship in Sagres in 2010, founders Chitra and Roman Stern have worked to advocate for investment in Portugal- their entrepreneurial ventures include the United Lisbon International School, which debuted in September 2020.
