Upcycled craft commons
An industrial riverside collective where raw architecture meets zero-waste craft, turning salvaged materials and local artistry into an energetic gathering hub.
“At first, Lisbon’s new Jam Hotel looks too raw to be finished, but on closer inspection, it is the circularity-focused backdrop…”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Raw concrete interiors fitted with recycled-shoe headboards and burnt eucalyptus woodwork.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Wallpaper*.
The result is vibrant but stripped back, with a lobby that looks like a street art exhibition space, rooms lined in raw concrete, and a rooftop pool…
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set along Avenida 24 de Julho in Santos, design studios, art galleries, and riverside bars sit right outside the door.
The rooms
Concrete walls enclose modular bunks crafted from burnt eucalyptus, paired with colorful eco-tile headboards made from recycled sneaker soles.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The rooftop pool is lined with hand-painted tiles by Bela Silva and looks out across the Tagus River.
Mojjo Restaurant & Bar
Chef Mauro Airosa serves dishes blending Portuguese, African, and Asian flavors around a curved terracotta-tiled bar.
How it began

A derelict 1960s office block was transformed into Portugal's first certified passive hotel, rebuilt using salvaged stone, cork, and timber.
