← All houses
Above what used to house the architecture studio, at the quiet end of the main street
A former library and meeting room — a bright studio in timber, steel and soft fabrics, with a large collection of contemporary art books and design magazines that stayed behind.
Book Library
A busy architects' studio in a previous life — sea views and direct sunlight through south-facing windows and a traditional gallarija; steel and timber on the original patterned tiles.
Book Atelier
Where Valletta Vintage began — a studio with harbour views from every window, on the top floor of the old architecture studio.
Book Gallery
The three studios share a kitchen and two terraces — the social heart of the house, where guests gather around one long table with Fort St Elmo beyond.
Wake slowly. Coffee while the street is still quiet.
You might — carry the cup to the terrace, and let the morning arrive with it.
Out the door and into Valletta, the city at work three steps away.
You might — walk down along Boat Street for a morning swim.
Lunch out: the kind of trattoria where the room is louder than the kitchen.
You might — try the seafood pasta at Da Pippo.
Back to the flat, out of the heat. A siesta, the light gone lazy through the shutters.
You might — visit Fort St Elmo, once the heat has eased.
A glass of wine on the terrace, Fort St Elmo catching the last light before you do.
You might — stay for the golden hour, then head down into the city for dinner.
Strait Street for a last drink. Home to a street already asleep.
You might — stop at Sip N Sail for the last drink.
