Campo Novo: A New Benchmark for Placemaking in Europe
Campo Novo is a landmark mixed-use development that is redefining urban living in the heart of Lisbon. Strategically located along the city’s main axis and adjacent to the key Campo Grande transport hub, the project brings together modern residences, next-generation office spaces, curated retail, and generous public areas to create a vibrant, inclusive community.
Covering 80,000 sq m of above-ground construction, Campo Novo integrates residential, office, and retail functions within a thoughtfully designed environment, enhanced by landscaped gardens and ample parking. The result is a dynamic setting where living, working, and leisure coexist seamlessly.
Central to Campo Novo’s success is Sonae Sierra’s comprehensive management of its mixed-use components. Leveraging decades of experience, Sierra oversees the property management and leasing of the retail and office spaces, ensuring a dynamic tenant mix that caters to both local needs and modern business demands. The parking facilities are also managed to provide optimal accessibility and convenience for all users.
Promoted by Norfin, a real estate investment management firm, Campo Novo exemplifies collaborative excellence in urban development. It harmoniously combines the charm of traditional Lisbon neighborhoods with the innovation of contemporary city living.
What sets Campo Novo apart as a premier placemaking project in Europe is its holistic approach to urban integration. By thoughtfully combining diverse functionalities – residential, commercial, workplaces, and recreational – within a cohesive and accessible layout, it fosters a sense of community and belonging. The emphasis on sustainable design, connectivity, and quality public spaces not only enhances the urban fabric of Lisbon but also sets a precedent for future developments aiming to create meaningful and enduring places for people to live, work, and connect.
