About Keluvi
A studio built on light, line and calm
It started with an unfinished concrete house and a borrowed set of chairs.
Ilse planned her first wedding for a friend in a house that still had no windows. There was no budget for decoration, so she designed with what the building already had: hard light, deep shadow and a view. The guests talked about it for years.
Keluvi grew from that idea. Today we are a team of four in a small studio on Rua das Flores, designing weddings in galleries, courtyards and modern houses across Portugal and Europe — always with the architecture in charge.

(04) — Principles
01
Light before decoration
We plan around the sun first. Flowers, furniture and paper come second — and always answer to the light.
02
One clear idea
Every wedding has a single design sentence. If a detail doesn’t serve it, it quietly leaves the plan.
03
Calm is a service
Clear timelines, honest budgets and a reply within two working days. Planning should never feel like a second job.
04
Out of sight
On the day our team is close but invisible. You should only notice that everything simply works.
