Color Me Happy – Portugal | Viterbo Interior Design Ateliers

“Color Me Happy – Portugal” is built on a clear belief: colour has the power to change how we feel at home. The project was never about making a “colourful house,” but about designing a home where colour becomes an emotional language. Every room began with the same question — what should this space make you feel? — and the palette, materials, lighting and furniture were shaped around that emotion.

Each space became its own world. The fuchsia office is bold and energising, designed to spark confidence and creativity the moment you walk in. The deep blue powder room feels grounding and introspective — a quiet reset. The dining room carries a sense of fun and rhythm, built for long conversations and easy gatherings. The living room brings several hues together in a softer, more relaxed way, creating a space where people naturally slow down, connect and unwind.

Although every room has a strong identity, the whole house remains coherent. That balance comes from recurring materials, natural textures, curved silhouettes and a commitment to comfort. Nothing is loud for the sake of being loud; the colour is there because it makes the home feel more alive, more personal and more joyful.

The project is also subtly shaped by its location in Estoril. The distinctive coastal light influenced how the palette shifts from room to room, and Portuguese craftsmanship is present in the stones, wood, woven textures and handmade details that bring warmth and honesty to the spaces.

“Color Me Happy – Portugal” is not about following trends. It’s about creating a home where emotion has a place — a home that welcomes optimism, personality and joy, room by room.
