Have a look to Villa 5 in Vila do Conde, Portugal
Tucked within the historic heart of "the Monte" along the storied Compostela pathway, just a gentle stroll from both the river’s whisper and the ocean’s breath, lies a collection of five elemental sanctuaries—each room inspired by one of nature’s primal forces: Fire, Water, Ether, Earth, and Air. These rooms are more than shelter—they are immersive experiences. Nestled between ancient stone trails and salt-kissed breezes, each space blends natural materials with symbolic design, capturing the essence of its element:
* Fire Room: A warm, glowing space with terracotta tones, flickering candles, and hints of volcanic stone. It invites energy, passion, and transformation.
* Water Room: Gentle blues and fluid shapes echo the nearby river, with soft lighting and wave-like textures that calm the spirit.
* Ether Room: A minimalist, tranquil expanse with open space, suspended fabrics, and a celestial palette—meant for reflection and connection beyond the physical.
* Earth Room: Rich with wood, clay, and greenery, this grounding room draws from the land's ancient history and offers rooted serenity.
* Air Room: Light-filled with flowing curtains, pale hues, and high ceilings—this room celebrates breath, clarity, and the freedom of open skies.
Together, these rooms form a harmonious retreat where pilgrims and travelers can rest, reflect, and realign with the elements that move both nature and the soul.
