Happy #Wednesdaywalk to all of you guys and many thanks to the both hosts of this amazing Wednesday event, our beloved and
which are looking forward to amazing walks every week on Wednesday.
Today I present you my sunday walk around the LX Factory in Lisbon. One of my favorites. A place to be. A bit trashy, but artfully. Vintage but hip. A weird, cool and nice combo of lifestyle you will find here.
All Photos were taken with my Huawei P30. Date: December 11th, 2022.
The final Adress is:
R. Rodrigues de Faria 103, 1300-501 Lisboa
I marked it via #pinmapple so you guys can find it more easy.
start at the museum
I will start the tour at Rua 1º de Maio 24, 1300-474 Lisboa, at the Art Deco Museum B-MAD. Normally I wanted to visit it but one could only visit the museum with a guided tour. This I had booked, but this did not take place at the specified time. Since I didn't wanted to wait an hour (I already was waiting 30 min 😒) I decided spontaneously to walk across the street and have a nice time in the LX Factory. A few impressions I will share with you right now. Ready? Lets goooooo for a little walk...
The LX Factory has some entries, here is a side entrance of this spot. Directly at the beginning we have a loooot of streetart. Its like a modern open air museum. Niiiice.
I just wanted to go over to the museum and saw last minute another #streetart to my left.
A kind of modern #Azulejos #art. A #portrait. But I don't know the person on it. Sorry.
Also an interesting art right? Looks like a Egypt comic style. What you think?
But now let go into the museum.
The entry was pretty impressive. The registration is in front, to my left is a looot of wine and to my right too... And a Christmas tree and some art. Even a screen with artfully movie scenes.
Here you can see a short view of the screen too.
As you can see, a place for wine lovers. Haha.
After waiting long and got the info that I have to wait another hour until a guided tour would be maybe possible I took my 5 euros entry back and left. I just did some more impressions of the inside design and walked over to the #LXFactory.
Lets get out of here now.
Lets walk across the street and we are entering a streetart paradise. Aaaw, my beloved place to be. Hope you will like it like I do.
I was entering the sideway. Of course you have a main entrance here too. But this way along you will see more #graffiti and #art directly.
This head graffiti from the artist 'assisradni' is super dope and one of my favs here.
I even found another trash animal art creation of Bordalo II, but for that I will make an extra post. I have done some close-ups and because I am a big "fan" of his art, I wanna make. It more special. Anyway, you will have enough art here too today. Like a graffiti streetart museum. Hahahaha.
This artworks you will see directly on this entry. On the other side you will have some shops, cafés, restaurants or markets.
Because of my spontaneous changes of my plans today, I decided to look around for some xmas present for a friend of mine too.
You will find a lot of different shops here. Most of them are fancy and hip. Some a bit more expensive. Many shops have French brands and lovely designs.
Most of this old, ruined houses and buildings are pimped up in an artfully new design.
Even all #stickerart fans would love it here. This is only one example. A door covered in stickers. Amazing.
On this sunday it was cloudy and a bit rainy from the night before. We had still a warm weather but damn a lot of rain in the last nights. So some parts in lisbon were even overflowed with water. Feel free to check some news from lisbon, you will see even cars underwater. Phew, but in this area it was all good. Just some wet streets from the last rain.
Everywhere you will find some lovely art pictures here.
And again some more #stickers. But wait, lets check the other side of the street for a moment...
Wowowow, interesting isn't it?
'Petit Love' is a cute and sweet shop for baby and little children stuff and toys. Really beautiful designs but not the best xmas present for my friend. Lets check some other areas.
This is also a really beautiful artwork. I like the t-shirt design, looks like from Snoopy the one character. What was his name again?
And on the building the poster of the character is super funny. With the mouth on the forehead. Lol
Outstanding one right? Its directly at the entrance of a café so I tried not to photograph the people which were sitting around. But super marvelous portrait. I like the dark blue vibes and black white style much.
Most shops and restaurants have an artwork in front. Many different styles. I looove that soooo much here.
Lets check some shops from the inside. I still need to find a present.
Here is one picture of the baby stuff feom the 'Petit Love' store. I just went in to make a photo to show you an example of the style.
After I went into the 'BRANDZ' another store on this street. The have a lot of different things. Lets walk around and check what they have. The socks of #vanGogh are funny, but maybe another present would be better. Lol
I love candles but since I do not know what candle scent she likes, I prefer to leave the finger of it. Lets check the rest of the store.
Hmmmm, maybe the parfum to the right. It smells nice and I know she likes such parfums. But maybe I will find something else? Lets see a bit more.
At the end I have chosen rhe parfum like you can see.
But not enough. We haven't finished our walk. So lets goooooo...
I went to another funny, fancy store. I wanted to shhare with you guys the style here and maybe I find something else (my thought was at this moment).
The animal heads are cool. Like them.
So much freaky stuff here. And I didn't showed it all. But believe me, I was more than overwhelmed from all that. So I left and looked around for more art.
More impressions will follow the next days. Have some gems stil for you. Hope you like the first impressions of the #LXFactory ✨🤗🎨
Hope you guys liked my #Wednesdaywalk today.
