Criterion Portugal was founded in 2022 with an ambitious goal: to build homes for life, for today's families and future generations.
With a philosophy focused on improving the quality of life of communities and their inhabitants, our developments bring a new perspective to housing projects.
Sustainability in its broadest sense is the anchor of our initiatives and a requirement we make of all our partners.
We want to be part of the future of Portuguese families, both by making the most of their investment and by providing high quality at balanced prices.
Our history is recent, but our DNA contains the English sensitivity and culture of the founder of Criterion Capital, the financial fund that decided to invest in Portugal by creating Criterion Portugal, with strict parameters of efficiency and focus on customers and their needs.
Over the last 2 years, Criterion Portugal has built or is developing around 1300 apartments, of which we highlight the Alma Gardens and Alma Hills projects in Miraflores under construction and sale, the ParQ project in Oeiras under development.
With a set of assets valued at over €100m, Criterion Portugal aims to become the leader in the residential market in Portugal.
Our greatest commitment is to sustainability, which allows us to ensure quality, for today and for the future.
We have a holistic vision of sustainability, which ranges from design to materials and construction systems, to interior elements and surrounding green spaces, to which we add concern for biodiversity, which leads us to constantly strive to do the best that current science allows us to do.
The experience and translation of this commitment into work is attested by BREEAM certification, a world leader in the certification system in all dimensions of sustainability, with certain Criterion Portugal projects having achieved the “very good” rating.
The BREEAM system reduces both the search for zero carbon in buildings and the creation of healthy environments for people, taking care of thermal and sound comfort, adequate ventilation and air quality, thus promoting the well-being of the inhabitants of our developments.
Optimizing the use of resources, from a perspective of circularity and reuse, is another parameter that defines our actions both in terms of housing and surrounding spaces, taking care to ensure the environmental balance of everything that is built, preserving the biodiversity and typical nature of each location.
The way we approach our responsibility towards our communities is the result of our vision and our philosophy. Homes for life, for the families of today and the future. That is why we do not want our children to grow up without love, without a home and without a family, which is why we contribute to Aldeias SOS. We are also working to establish intelligent partnerships with the communities where our projects are integrated, contributing to a more harmonious development.
