Inês Regato was born in 1984 and lived in Alentejo until 2002, the year she enrolled at the Faculty of Architecture of the Technical University of Lisbon, where she completed her degree in Architecture.
She completed her Internship for Admission to the Order of Architects and worked in architectural studios until 2015, the year she founded Inês Regato – Architecture, Interiors and Design. She currently lives in Lisbon and focuses mainly on residential and hospitality projects.
Beyond Architecture, she is interested in Music, Fashion, Painting, and the creative field in general. She appreciates the simplicity of natural materials and develops her projects with a focus on precision and attention to detail, creating bespoke solutions for each one. She approaches every project as unique, exploring its narrative to craft exclusive solutions tailored to each context and client.
Joana Astolfi (b. Lisbon, 1975) is an architect, artist, and designer who draws visual inspiration from a wide universe of found objects and artifacts, with a particular focus on history and narrative. She treats a space as something alive, as an active participant in the human drama. Her work stems from a deep sensitivity to the evolving identity of each place over time, its web of relationships with the people who inhabit it, and all the stories that unfold within it. For Astolfi, architectural and interior design renovations are like resurrections: she aims to breathe new life into each project and set the stage for stories yet to unfold, while keeping the richness of the past alive.
Astolfi completed her Bachelor’s degree in Architecture in England, graduating with Distinction. She lived and worked for twelve years outside her native Portugal, including extended periods in London, Italy, Munich, and Los Angeles. During two years in Venice, she was part of the team at the FABRICA Creative Research Centre.

Para isso, conta o Grupo Norma com uma vasta equipa de profissionais técnicos e projetistas.
