Almost overnight, in 2008, a factory complex dating back to 1846 became one of Lisbon’s hottest addresses. The industrial spaces were turned into offices, and soon came cafés, restaurants and shops. It also put the neighborhood of Alcântara on the tourist map, and it’s now a trendy destination.
A creative island occupied by companies and industry professionals that has also been the scene of a diverse range of events in the fields of fashion, advertising, communication, multimedia, art, architecture, music, and more. A factory of experiences where it becomes possible to intervene, think, produce, present ideas and products in a place that belongs to everyone, for everyone.

Misterpiro, is a visual/urban artist. Graduated from University Complutense de Madrid in Design. Presently living in Madrid, although his work often takes him out of the country.
He started in the streets with graffiti, later he followed on with watercolours, acrylic and water-based techniques in his studio. He worked until he has succeeded in uniting the two such contrary techniques in a unique style, full of life and colour, that goes from the most hot red to the most electric turquoise. Taking the delicate style of the watercolour to the street, to the new support of the external wall that has so little to do with the paper upon which he makes his most delicate works.
