Relationships that enrich community.
We do not work alone. We are surrounded with a silent circle of experts—from Feng Shui and organization consultants to meticulous inspectors and legal minds. We harmonize every detail so you don’t have to.
PORTUGUESE SOUL
The restoration of historic houses is their passion, combined with a deep sense of Portuguese identity. These two elements form the essence of Portuguese Soul. At Portuguese Soul, Ana and Sónia are passionate about working with the unique characteristics of Portuguese culture.
They draw inspiration from our history, traditions, and rich cultural heritage, to create and transform spaces that tell stories. Their ultimate goal is to proudly promote and share the "Portuguese brand" with creativity and authenticity.
VANDA BOAVIDA
For Vanda Boavida, a space is never just a room; it is an ecosystem of health. After 13 years in the pharmaceutical industry, Vanda transitioned her focus from medicine to the environment, merging the ancient art of Feng Shui with modern Neuroarchitecture.
She is the author of the best-sellers Casa com Alma and Casa com Vida, and the creator of the Vanda Boavida Method®—a unique, science-backed approach to well-being that alchemizes identity, harmony, and performance.
AJUDA HOME INSPECTION
In a competitive market where demand often overshadows condition, Daniel Browning provides the essential ground-truth. Originally from Texas and now rooted in Portugal, Daniel founded Ajuda to replace uncertainty with evidence. An InterNACHI certified inspector with a profound history in restoring troubled properties, he specializes in the "honest look" beneath the surface.
His approach is clinical yet respectful, focusing on function, safety, and long-term value. Through impartial evaluations delivered in a productive, clear format, Daniel ensures that every CIELO client moves forward without the pressure of the unknown.
RAFAELA GARCEZ
To Rafaela Garcez, organizing a home is an act of organizing the self. Born in Madeira and raised in Mozambique, she learned early on that caring for one’s space is the ultimate form of self-respect. With a background in Design, Rafaela looked beyond the aesthetics of objects to find their purpose, becoming a leading Consultant in Essentialism.
She is a specialist in emotional organization, an author, and the founder of a school dedicated to "lighter living." At CIELO, Rafaela ensures that the move into a new home is not just a change of address, but a transformation of lifestyle.
DRAFT IN
At CIELO, we believe a home’s soul is decided long before the first stone is laid. That is why we work in intimate collaboration with DRAFT-IN from the very first sketch. While CIELO leads the design intent and lifestyle planning, DRAFT-IN provides the technical mastery to bring that vision to life.
Based in Cascais, DRAFT-IN is a multidisciplinary powerhouse of 35 architects and engineers. Together, we navigate the complexities of licensing, specialty engineering, and "turnkey" construction.
