About

Who We Are

PortPorcBlue is a cultural initiative dedicated to the preservation and reinvention of Portuguese blue porcelain motifs. We blend curatorial research, design experimentation, and cross-cultural collaboration to present the legacy of Portuguese porcelain to a global audience.

Our Mission

We celebrate the poetic language of blue porcelain through immersive storytelling, archival preservation, and forward-looking design partnerships. By sharing resources in English, we invite international audiences to understand the heritage, craft, and innovation anchored in Portuguese culture.

Our team collaborates with artisans, historians, and contemporary creators to document processes, share techniques, and envision new applications. PortPorcBlue serves as a bridge connecting Portuguese ateliers with designers, collectors, and cultural institutions worldwide.

What We Offer

  • Curated digital exhibitions spotlighting signature motif realms and emerging collaborations.
  • Research publications, glossaries, and toolkits for designers exploring porcelain-inspired aesthetics.
  • Immersive programs and residencies supporting international creators working with Portuguese artisans.

Editorial Curation

We publish essays, interviews, and visual diaries that contextualize porcelain traditions and contemporary interpretations.

Creative Labs

Seasonal labs bring together interdisciplinary teams to prototype installations, product concepts, and digital experiences.

Community Exchanges

We facilitate exchanges that foster knowledge sharing between established artisans and emerging designers across continents.
