💛Personally, yellow is definitely my favorite color. Like the summer sun that accompanies my days, or the vitamin C of a lemon juice, or even like naturally protein-rich fried eggs enjoyed for breakfast, yellow is euphoric, revitalizing, energizing... fantastic for brightening up an interior, idealistic for distinguishing yourself from your peers sartorially speaking, and yellow color is very stylish for customizing your latest Ferrari... The possibilities are endless...


“De gustibus non est disputandum,” but according to this summary that I copied and pasted, they are said to have astonishing powers!


📖The Amazing Power of Colors (in colors), by the author Jean-Gabriel Causse


“When you discovered the cover of this essay, in less than a hundredth second, your brain 🧠 decoded the rainbow colors🌈 of the visual. In less than a tenth of a second, you concluded that color was definitely the subject.


The very particular blue of the background then “caught” your eye 👀. This blue relaxes you and therefore invites you to take a little time to find out more.


The green 💚 of the title reassures you. It suggests to your subconscious that this book may be right for you. It conditions you to act and move forward.


Think about traffic lights!🚦


🗣️You will discover through the results of scientific studies to what extent colors influence you, whatever the field: psychology, learning, interior design, fashion, productivity, creativity, marketing, sexual desire...


This very accessible and light-style essay has been enriched with the latest academic studies 👩‍🎓on color and the magnificent illustrations of Robin Gillet.


After reading it, you will never see colors the same way. »🪂



😸 And, as cats are my pet friends;


Hippolyte Taine said: "I have studied many philosophers and many cats. The wisdom of cats is infinitely superior..."




​Our Store

It is in the unmissable Alfama, whose colorful houses and winding cobbled streets that remind its Moorish origins give it its picturesque charm, that we set up our store in 2013.

 

This neighborhood which has remained authentic, nestled in the very heart of Lisbon, lives at nightfall to the rhythm of fado, a song full of emotion recounting love, life, nostalgia for the past, listened to in establishments dedicated to this art and tradition, is also a reflection of the soul of its city.

In our premises you will find local crafts, portuguese tiles, sardines, swallows, cork and ceramic...  

In addition to essential souvenirs our own creations ranging from photography to jewelry complete our eclectic choice, some pieces of which are offered for sale on the Etsy platform.​

A visit is necessary then, our store is located a stone's throw from the Fado museum, so we look forward to welcoming you!
