They designed the space to allow residents to immerse themselves in Portuguese culture, make surprising new connections, and enjoy a peaceful workspace.

SameSame consists of two old traditional buildings remodeled by a young Portuguese team of architects, designed to guarantee the best resting conditions for colivers. The space has been flourishing ever since its opening, expanding to include two buildings for coliving and short stays, a coworking space, and a new venue on the way.
