A factory in Intendente

Built between 1849 and 1865, the building which is located in Intendente

had the entirety of its façade decorated in figurative tiles, designed by

the factory’s artistic director, Ferreira das T abuletas, representing a

pioneering example of the use of tiles as a means of advertising. The

building, which is nowadays classified as a building of public interest, is

one of the most emblematic in the city, and is an ex-libris for 19th century

naive style tiles

Officially set up in 1849 by Antonio da Costa Lamego

Viúva Lamego (Widow Lamego), the woman who gave her name to the factory

Originally the pottery workshop of António Costa Lamego, it later

became a factory and adopted the name Viúva Lamego when António

Lamego’s wife took on its management, following the death of her

husband, in 1876.

1930

From clay to tile

Early on, the factory mainly produced utilitarian items made of red clay,

tiles in white clay and some earthenware. With the arrival of the 20th

century, the tile became Viúva Lamego’s main product, and by then it

was already a factory focused on artists, with working ateliers made

available to them. In the 1930s, the industrial arm was moved to Palma de Baixa.  

In 1992 the factory was transferred to Abrunheira, in Sintra, where it is

still located. The building at Largo do Intendente is now open to the

public for the exhibition and sale of tiles.

Preserving the legacy with an eye on the future

Our history is as much about fidelity to the past, with artisanal production

techniques, as it is about looking to the future, with the constant

development of new approaches and techniques, always focusing on Sustainability and innovation.

LIMITED EDITION | Kiss Me. Two words that seem simple, but aren't. It's a moment suspended before contact, it's impulse and decision. It can be a beginning or a farewell. It doesn't ask permission from history, but cuts through it. In the end, that's what this edition seeks: the invisible weight of something seemingly minimal. Lips that meet. And nothing is ever exactly the same again.

With this edition, we offer a special supplement dedicated to the world of brides — from dresses that remain in the memory to the details that make a wedding truly unique. Now available at shop.light-house.pt and, very soon, at newsstands.

Author Gabriella Burnham Language: English

A young woman reunites with her teenage sister in their childhood home on Nantucket Island after their mother disappears.

Elise is out dancing the night before her college graduation when her younger sister Sophie calls to tell her their mom is nowhere to be found. Elise leaves on the next flight back to her childhood home, Nantucket Island, for the first time in nearly four years. When she arrives she discovers the ways in which her whip-smart little sister has had to make do without her.

The sisters soon learn that police stopped their mother on her way home from work and deported her to São Paulo, Brazil. Intent on bringing her back, Elise stays and secures the same job she had in high school: monitoring endangered birds that have laid eggs on a remote beach. Meanwhile, her best friend from college, Sheba—a gregarious socialite and heir to a famed children's toy company—reveals that she has inherited her grandfather’s summer mansion on Nantucket. What will Elise do when the new life she created in college collides with the life she left behind on the island? As she confronts the emotional and material realities that have fractured her family, she is confronted by a world in Brazil that her mother has had to leave behind, too.

One engagement. Two best friends. Three's a crowd.

On the eve of their college graduation, best friends Javier Báez and Marisol Campos swore never to date someone the other doesn’t approve of. Now, almost a decade later, Javi has a problem. Mari, the woman he’s secretly pined for since sophomore year, is engaged—and Javi didn’t even get the chance to vet the Pedro Pascal knockoff she plans to marry.

A successful entertainment lawyer in Los Angeles, Mari is no longer seeking Javi’s dating advice or waiting for him to declare his love. Instead, she’s made a different pact—with herself. And to succeed, Mari’s vowing to build a future with someone who wants to commit to her.

With his life and career finally on track, Javi’s ready to confess his feelings. Except Mari’s changed the script and moved on without him. Javi has just six weeks to convince Mari this marriage is a flop. If that means he needs to ruffle some feathers to help her avert disaster, well, he’s up for the challenge. After all, isn’t that what best friends are for?

World—Ana Luísa Amaral’s second collection with New Directions—offers a new exhilarating set of poems that convey wonder, bemusement, and an ever-deepening appreciation of life. Weaving the thread that connects the poem to life, World speaks of our immense human perplexity in the face of everything around us and our oneness with it all. As Amaral notes, all of us, “humans and non-humans, are on the same ontological level, the differences being only a matter of perspective. We are all made of the same stuff as dreams—and stars.” Asked about her thoughts on World, Amaral’s peerless translator Margaret Jull Costa replied: “What I take from this collection of poems is a sense of joy in the ordinary—seeing an ant going about its business, or a bee or a fish, or the feeling of sharing a whole history with a particular table, or watching a very ordinary woman sitting on a train playing with the handle of her handbag. World also brings us meditations on colonization, slavery, and whaling. Like the world, it is full of surprises and full of joy and sadness.” These vibrant, exultant poems invite you to share this marvelous world: Yes, all you need (how easy!) is to say yes.
