Comporta’s planned Six Senses collection has three distinct responses to the landscape. Michaelis Boyd gives the Sand homes dune-like curves and cork-toned interiors; Forest homes bring together timber, terracotta and textured surfaces; Lake villas frame reflections and glimpses of water. Terraces, outdoor kitchens and pools carry domestic life outside, with features varying across the collection. The setting is the Pinheirinho estate, where the residential plan preserves extensive pine woodland and combines an owners’ lounge with a seasonal-food programme supplied by an on-site vegetable garden.
