最初的目的是创造一个宁静的私人避难所，远离城市的喧嚣。酒店位于葡萄牙南部的山丘上，距离中世纪小镇Estremoz仅几公里，拥有绵延起伏的橄榄果林和几个小村庄， 夜间闪烁的灯光，远离城市。 在寻找度假胜地时，Victor Borges和Franck Laigneau立刻爱上了这个地方。 决定分享他们对艺术的共同热情。
The first thing you need to know about Dá Licença, a boutique hotel in the Portuguese countryside, is that it was initially intended to be a tranquil, private refuge from the hustle and bustle of the city. Perched on the hills of Alentejo in southern Portugal, a few kilometres away from the medieval town of Estremoz, the location enjoys expansive vistas of rolling olive groves, the forest of Serra d’Ossa and several small whitewashed villages, which form an earthly constellation of flickering lights during the night. No wonder then that in their search for a holiday retreat, Paris-based Victor Borges and Franck Laigneau instantly fell in love with the place. But rather than keeping it to themselves, they decided to share this euphoric setting, as well as their common passion for the arts, with a wider audience.
Five years in the making, Dá Licença, which in Portuguese means “with your permission”—a traditional courtesy of horse-riders entering the arena that conveys the hotel’s hospitality—has taken over a cluster of 19th-century farmhouses along with the surrounding 120-hectare estate that abounds in olive, fig and cork trees. With the help of Estremoz-based architects Procal, the existing structures were transformed into a modern retreat of clean lines and discrete volumes without effacing the traditional character of the rural estate. Punctuated by geometric openings, the austere sensibility of the all-white exteriors is mirrored in the minimalist aesthetic of the hotel’s interiors which Borges and Laigneau have themselves masterminded by harmoniously fusing contemporary design with folkloric craftsmanship and a stunning art collection.
The boutique hotel consists of three buildings, a larger structure housing the common areas, a suite and two guestrooms, and two smaller buildings where four additional suites and one more guestroom are located. A series of larger and smaller courtyards, private gardens and intimate terraces create a spatial fluidity between interiors and exteriors, while offering guests a series of spaces both for socializing and contemplation. And then there are the pools—the refreshing presence of water is indispensable in any retreat in such a Mediterranean location—namely a perfectly round pool set against a stunning backdrop of rolling hills, accompanied by a T-shaped infinity pool with views of unfolding olives groves and several private pools.
The interior design is based on an Arts & Crafts philosophy and a desire to create a dialogue between art and nature. Dark granite floors, lime washed walls, and marble furnishings that have been hand-carved from white and pink marble from the local quarries, create the perfect backdrop for an eclectic selection of handcrafted furniture, tapestries and ceramics, as well as allow the hotel to do away with air conditioning due to the building fabric’s thermal mass.
Borges and Laigneau’s idiosyncratic furniture collection and the accompanying art collection is a lifetime project with pieces from all over Europe. In fact, Borges and Laigneau see no distinction between furniture and art pieces, low and high art, mixing them up throughout interior and exterior, public and private spaces, which is why the hotel does not feel like a museum or gallery despite its abundance of works by artists and artisans.
只有在酒店的画廊里，收藏家们对艺术的深厚热情才得以体现。该空间设置在地面以下，允许客人了解探险，旁边有一个露天餐厅。同时，客人在Da Licenca可以享受一个不断变化的菜单，食材来自当地和季节性的产物。
It is only in the hotel’s dedicated gallery space, housed in the farm’s old oil press, where the collectors’ deep passion for the arts is made explicit. Set below ground level, the space allows guests to get to know Jugendstil and Anthroposophical Design at their own pace, and will also soon also host an intimate restaurant along with an adjoining terrace for al fresco dining in the summer. Meanwhile, guests at Dá Licença can enjoy an ever-changing menu based local and seasonal products which they can savor at one of the three private dining rooms, completing a refined, thoughtful and authentic kind of hospitality that can only be described as sublime.
