In this room, the dark colors represent the poet's thinking and restless mind.
The wood of the bedside tables is an allusion to his heteronym naturalist, lover of flowers, forest and trees, Alberto Caeiro.
The dark headboard, behind the double bed, represents the heavy adolescence of Fernando Pessoa, which he contrasts with the colorful carpet and with multiple triangles, which illustrates both his childhood, the only time when he was really happy, as well as his multiple personalities.
