Viridis Development Partners

Viridis Development Partners is a Lagos-based property development group creating modern, eco-conscious homes across the Algarve. Specialising in bespoke, off-plan turnkey solutions, the company delivers timeless architecture, robust construction, and energy-efficient living designed to complement the region’s relaxed, outdoor lifestyle.

Founded by Nuno Battaglia, Jorge Grave, Antonio Castel-Branco and Dexter ten Hoopen, Viridis brings together more than a century of combined real estate and development expertise, united by a shared passion for the Algarve and a long-term commitment to responsible growth.

From its award-winning flagship project, Encosta da Luz, to Burgau Sea Gardens, a recently completed collection of 32 apartments, Viridis has established a reputation for delivering high-quality residential communities that are both distinctive and sensitive to their surroundings.

The group’s expanding portfolio includes new developments across the Algarve, including residential apartments coming soon in Loulé, a warehousing project in Silves, luxury villa projects in the picturesque fishing village of Salema, and most excitingly, a stunning new development of 46 touristic apartments in Lagos — Horta da Bibita (add link to www.hortadabibita.com).

Each development begins with a deep understanding of its landscape and local heritage. Sites are carefully interpreted so that architecture, orientation and views feel naturally integrated into their setting. Advanced construction methods, high-performance insulation and A+ energy ratings ensure homes are future-ready, cost-efficient and environmentally responsible.

A defining strength of Viridis is its fully integrated model. With in-house construction through BGE, specialist pool company Pebble Pools, and dedicated brokerage through ten Hoopen Realty, the group controls the entire development journey — from land acquisition and concept creation to construction, sales and final handover.

Viridis also partners with landowners who may lack the capital or technical expertise to develop independently, structuring joint ventures that unlock value while mitigating risk for all parties.

Sustainability underpins every decision, from the use of local and natural materials to rainwater harvesting, low-water landscaping, solar-ready infrastructure and intelligent energy systems. Long-standing relationships with banks, architects, engineers and local authorities ensure that every project is not only beautifully realised, but responsibly delivered and efficiently approved.
