CW Arquitectura is a Lisbon-based architecture and interior design studio directed by Carla Woiski. The firm operates from Lisbon and also maintains an office in Porto, focusing on projects throughout Portugal. Established by professionals with training in both Brazilian and Portuguese architecture, CW Arquitectura emphasizes a detailed, context-sensitive approach that blends influences from both countries.
The studio operates in the fields of architecture, interior design, and furniture design, providing comprehensive project management and personalized solutions for private residences, hospitality, retail, and corporate spaces. CW Arquitectura’s scope covers the entire process from architectural concept through project execution, collaborating with specialists across engineering, construction, lighting, and sustainability. The firm’s number of personnel is small, favoring close client communication and tailored project management.
Recent projects include the transformation of residential apartments in Lisbon, the fit-out of commercial spaces in Porto, and the interior design of countryside houses in the Alentejo region. Specific examples highlighted on their website feature detailed custom finishes, coordinated furniture elements, and the integration of local materials.
CW Arquitectura approaches each project individually, incorporating site specificity and attention to detail rather than following a fixed aesthetic. The firm’s work is characterized by a pragmatic and collaborative methodology rather than a signature style. Information on their website and external references confirm the firm’s consistent presence within the contemporary Portuguese architectural scene, but do not indicate participation in prominent public competitions or large-scale urban developments.
