CreativeMornings Lisbon last event, in July, took place in Selina Secret Garden Lisboa, a recent place in our amazing city. It was the first time that our event was hosted in this venue and what an experience it was! As you enter Selina Secret Garden you immediately feel inspired and belonging, it is somehow familiar, creative, artistic and fulfilling all at the same time. It is visible how every detail counts in Selina’s, which makes this place so magical. You also get the feeling that you are entering some not-that-big place but when you start going around you feel surprised as in every corner a new space comes in front of you.
Selina has a hostel, with some deluxe suites, a pool, a restaurant, a co-working space and an amazing rooftop, full of beautiful flowers. Even the shared kitchen is amazingly decorated and immediately makes you want to kook something, just to immerse in that space. The outside space is something that also contributes for this sense of magical place. A lot of art works fill the walls, many paintings with the finishing touch of flowers and plants that fulfil every place and make you feel like you’re not in the middle of the city, but you are close to nature. Also, the pool is an attraction at Selina’s, as it is the perfect in-between-buildings pool that totally matches its surroundings.
The co-working place has hot and permanent desks and was full in the day of CreativeMornings event. It maintains the creative and naturally inspiring décor of the rest of the place, with a professional and working touch that makes anyone want to join with their laptop. You have chairs, sofas, outside chairs and benches… the sky is the limit to co-work there.
For CreativeMornings Lisbon July event Selena was the perfect match, to talk about Ends in a never-ending place, with so much to discover. It definitely is a creative place to discover in Lisbon, to work, to have some dinner with friends or even to have some good night sleep.
As a final secret thing about Selena, a rooftop bar is soon to be opened, which seems like the perfect excuse to return to this amazing and inspiring place. Wanna come?
