About Arts Patio
(Designart)
Arts Patio is an Algarve-based art dealer specializing in culturally rich, space-transforming works. We source pieces that carry the soul of their origin — from the rhythmic layers of batik to the quiet power of natural textures.
Our mission is simple: to connect collectors, designers, and curators with art that doesn’t just decorate — it resonates.
Every piece is chosen for its ability to evoke emotion, complete a space, and honor its roots.
Our story began in 2014, in Spain, sparked by a serendipitous encounter with the captivating world of batik art. Introduced by a friend, we were instantly drawn to its vibrant colours, intricate patterns, and the unmistakable sense of life and joy radiating from each piece. It was more than admiration — it was a calling.
Driven by this passion and under the name of Designart, we began sharing these stunning works through pop-up exhibitions and cultural events, including the renowned WOMAD festival. The response was overwhelming. Our first curated exposition became a resounding success, attracting a growing community of admirers and collectors who connected deeply with the spirit of the art.
As time unfolded, life presented unforeseen challenges. Circumstances beyond our control led us to pause this journey — a difficult decision, yet one that never extinguished our connection to the art. The essence of batik remained with us, quietly inspiring and reminding us of what truly brought us joy.
Now, more than a decade later, we return — renewed, reimagined, and rooted in Portugal. With a different name but the same devotion and a fresh perspective, we invite you to rediscover this timeless art form with us.
A seasoned collector or a curious newcomer, welcome to a journey of colour, culture, and connection ;)
