Third Skin – Architecture Agency

Nestled in the sun-kissed landscapes of Portugal, Third Skin – Architecture Agency embodies the laid-back yet sophisticated charm of modern living. At the helm is Joel Rosa, an architect-preneur with a knack for blending the casual charm of Mediterranean and Brazilian aesthetics with the timeless allure of Mid-Century Modern design.

Joel’s journey was fueled by a lifelong passion for modern art and iconic pop culture, translating into a career that is as much about crafting homes as it is about curating experiences. Each project is a narrative, telling stories of sunny afternoons and lazy evenings, where the warmth of the sun kisses the coolness of concrete, and the breeze dances through open spaces.

This is architecture that lives, breathes, and invites you in for a caipirinha. Third Skin is where the raw meets the refined. It’s a place where clients, much like the spaces they inhabit, personify a balance of sophistication and warmth.

For them, Joel crafts spaces that are havens – retreats from the buzz of the urban grind, where they can reconnect with their loved ones, with the rhythms of nature and the art of living well.

In every project, Joel infuses a bit of his soul – a love for the arts, a passion for vintage supercars, and a penchant for spaces that tell a story. With Third Skin, he’s moving towards redefining modern living. It’s about creating spaces where every corner tells a story, every room sings a song, and every structure becomes a landmark.

It’s architecture with a heartbeat, designed not just for living but for feeling, too.
