After months of designing, producing, and perfecting each pair, it’s in our stores that we finally get to share what we’ve created. It’s where people can try on our glasses, feel the craftsmanship, and experience what FORA is all about. Each store represents the culmination of our work and passion—a place where our brand comes to life in the hands of our customers.
From our very first corner in Principe Real to our latest store in Campo de Ourique, every location is a home for FORA. These are the places where our vision becomes reality, where we welcome people into our world and let them explore our collections up close. Our stores are where the journey we started in 2014 becomes something tangible, where we meet those who have supported us, and where new connections are made. Let’s take a walk through our homes and reflect on how they’ve shaped our journey so far.
Principe Real (Entretanto)
2014-2017
It all started with a small corner inside the “Entretanto” space in Principe Real. This was our first opportunity to present FORA to the public—a modest beginning, but the spark for something bigger. Though the space was temporary, it marked the start of our relationship with those who would come to know and love our glasses.
Álvares Cabral
2016-2019
Our first flagship store opened on Álvares Cabral in central Lisbon. Situated in a residential area surrounded by local businesses, this charming space became a hub for us. It was the first real embodiment of our minimalist aesthetic, setting the tone for what our future stores would become and offering a new way for people to connect with us.
Chiado
2017
In April 2017, we opened our doors in the heart of Chiado, a shopping district beloved by locals and tourists alike. This 75-square-meter store, with its Scandinavian-inspired minimalist design, creates an experience that is both intimate and inviting. Here, people can not only see our collection but also take care of their vision, with our in-store eye exams. This is where our clients can truly get a sense of who we are.
Prata
2019
Our second Lisbon location opened in September 2019 on the historic Rua da Prata. COVID and continuous construction weren’t kind to this particular store, but we’re proud to see it thriving in a beautiful setting today. The 80-square-meter space echoes the same clean, minimalist style and gives us another platform to meet our customers face-to-face. It’s a space that feels like home, where we can share what we do best with everyone who walks through the door.
Mouzinho
2020
In 2020, we brought FORA to Porto, opening our first store in the city. This location became a northern extension of our presence, with a larger space full of character. With its natural finishes, it represents the perfect balance of form and function, creating a place where people can get to know us, try on our glasses, and have their eyes checked in our upstairs optometry office.
Clérigos
2021
Just 300 meters from our Mouzinho store, our second Porto location opened near the iconic Clérigos Tower in 2021. This 20-square-meter store, though compact, carries the same spirit of minimalism and quality. It’s a small space with a big purpose: bringing FORA closer to everyone who visits this historic part of the city.
Campo de Ourique
2024
Our latest chapter began in 2024 with the opening of our store in Campo de Ourique Lisbon’s residential neighborhood. Positioned right across from the market, this new space allows us to further cement our connection with the city and offer a place for the local residents to meet us, explore our collection and be part of our journey.
Our stores aren’t just where we showcase our glasses—they’re where FORA feels like home. Each location tells a piece of our story, and every visit is a chance for someone to make FORA part of their own. Looking ahead, we can’t wait to welcome you into our next home.
