TEKSTUDIO is an architecture and design studio founded in Lisbon in 2011. We design houses, buildings, interiors and brands, with a single team from the first sketch to handover.
Our team brings together architects, designers and engineers, offering a multidisciplinary service tailored to the needs of each client and shaped by several fields of architecture and design.
TEKSTUDIO is led by architect Bruna Serralheiro, responsible for the entire creative area, and engineer João Torres, responsible for the company’s financial management and for supporting clients’ business plans.
Before founding TEKSTUDIO, Bruna Serralheiro worked at several renowned studios, including that of Souto Moura. João Torres brings a different perspective, gained through his professional career (Nokia Siemens, Amazon, UBER) and academic background (MBA at London Business School).
Studio
We work across architecture, urbanism, landscape architecture, interior design and graphic design, with a focus on spatial innovation and on people.
Our philosophy grows from a fascination with architecture as a human expression and a way of passing on knowledge. Designing begins with a pen and paper: communicating ideas and searching for the best solution. Clients are part of the team, in a dialogue where listening and acting make it possible to meet all their needs.
Each project calls for its own strategy. Sustainability guides every decision, from the choice of materials to the durability of spaces.
Method
We integrate technology into every phase of the project, from analysis to construction supervision.
BIM
3D models holding all the information of the building, shared by everyone involved in the project.
BIMx
We share every project in BIMx: clients explore the 3D model, plans and sections on a tablet or phone.
Virtual reality
Clients walk through the space before it is built and decide with confidence.
Materials lab
We test and compare materials: their properties, durability and aesthetic potential.
Services
Four complementary areas, with a single team and a single point of contact.
Architecture
From the preliminary study to construction supervision.
Interior design
Every detail, from the colour palette to the furniture.
Graphic design
Identity, branding and communication.
Consulting
Investment strategy and risk management.
Architecture
Architecture should contribute to a planet we want to live on, today and in the future. Each project responds to and belongs to its site, its programme and its budget, with a clear commitment to sustainability.
We develop complete architecture projects, from the preliminary study to construction supervision, using BIM to integrate and coordinate the design, and BIMx and virtual reality to explore the spaces before they are built.

Each texture evokes a trace of history, each shadow draws silence.

Chalet Conde d’Almeida Araújo
The rehabilitation and design of the Chalet Conde de Almeida Araújo respected the eclectic, mannerist and art déco architectural language of the original construction of 1904. Two fires destroyed all the interiors of the building. We believe the original finishing works were full of detail, therefore the proposal is based on a reinterpretation of similar palaces of the same period.
