AT HOME IN THE WORLD
In the summer of 2021, after a year of limited
movement, we had a newfound freedom; an opportu-
nity to explore the world around us once again.
In honour of summer, of freedom, of home, and
of familiar territory left unexplored, we asked
two of our friends, creatives Rodrigo Sousa and
Diogo Barros Pires, to embark on a road trip to
explore the beauty of Portugal and to reimagine
the concept of home. Placing our furniture in
unexpected and lesser-known locations, with vi-
gnettes at once domestic and wild, crafted and
found, they took us on a journey around our home
country, and explored what it means to be At Home
in the World.
Enjoy a taster of their journey here and discov-
er more, including further imagery and engaging
journal entries charting the experience, in the
Journal on the De La Espada website.
