[ est. 2012 ]

Founded in 2012 by Davide and Michael, DING DONG – Architecture & Interiors is a studio shaped by a shared vision for thoughtful, enduring design. From the outset, the practice has been driven by a desire to create spaces that are both deeply personal and architecturally grounded, where interiors are conceived as an integral extension of the built environment rather than a separate layer.

Each project is a collaborative and deeply personal journey, where we work closely with our clients to translate their experiences, instincts, and aspirations into bespoke interior environments. By combining their vision with our expertise, we create spaces that reflect individual personalities and ways of living, balancing functionality and aesthetics.

Our approach to interior design is rooted in architecture and focuses on creating spaces to be lived in and felt. Through a careful layering of materials, textures, and pieces, we aim to craft interiors that are harmonious, timeless, and expressive—where every detail contributes to a cohesive whole and a strong sense of place.

Strongly influenced by 20th-century design, our work is grounded in a rich mix of references that inform the everyday environments we design. With over a decade of experience, our portfolio spans urban residences and holiday homes, and has been featured in leading international publications. Our practice sits at the intersection of architecture and interior design, ensuring a holistic and thoughtful process from concept to completion, where clarity, quality of execution, and longevity guide every decision. We believe in spaces that age gracefully, support daily life, and provide a subtle yet distinctive backdrop for contemporary living.

We believe in a universal language of design that honors the uniqueness of each place. Our goal is to craft memorable, individual interiors without compromising on sustainability or lasting quality.

If this approach speaks to you, we’d love to welcome you to our Porto or Lisbon studios to talk about your project.
