Inspired from the dynamics of a sacred space, Still room celebrates the quiet as a retreat destination for meditation, rest and creation. Fully immersed in the beauty of its landscape, Still room transforms the energy of silence into a shelter for the body, mind and soul.
The passage from outside to inside awakens a sense of pause, presence and calm. Built from massive burnt cork blocks, the progressive evolution of the wall thickness opens a sensorial dialogue between stillness, architecture and nature.
A return to the simplicity of analogue being. Allowing yourself to slow down, to hold space and time in the “pause in between”, to celebrate the abundance of life, to invite rebirth.
Now.
Here.
Originally, a still room was a very important part of the house, used as a home apothecary where plants were being distilled into essential oils as medical care In a world of noise
and distraction, what is the still room for the mind to practice inner-care?
As a metaphor for the original still rooms, Still room today acts as the “space of pause” to still the mind, to restore inner space, to liberate new creative energy.
In silence, attention shifts inward. Still rooms explore wellbeing hospitality as the art of returning to presence.
Still room is located 1.5hrs from Lisbon, 20min from Montemor o Novo on the land of Casa no Tempo, owned by Silent Living.
Day retreats, wellbeing gatherings and art residencies will be hosted during the four seasons.
Feel free to contact us for more information.
