Balance

The designer created "Balance": a box with spatial presence and poetical statement. The box body, held from three feeds, floats over the surface. Swallows circle on the box, wich is like a secret treasure chest. This allows the user to keep private things or to store delicacies even under the eyes of others. Rather seems the generously proportioned branch handle to grow out of the box. But he still keeps the balance to the box body and is a room for himself. The wood, the ceramic and the swallows form a closed harmonious world, where each user can discover his own poetical story.

feltstone rug

Felt stone area rug gives an optical illusion of real stones. The use of different wools complement the look and feel of the rug. Stones are different from one another in size, color and high - the surface looks like in the nature. Some of them have a moss effect. Each pebble has a foam core that is surrounded by 100% wool. On the basis of this soft core every rock squeezes under pressure. The backing of the a rug is a transparent mat. Stones are sewed together and with the mat.

Armchair

Savana

The Savana armchair, made entirely by hand and only with wicker branches, was performed at a small workshop in Sao Paulo. A complex work that questions the high industrialization of furniture, since the raw material was not altered for the making of the piece. Referring to the clump of grass as wind, as found in nature, the Savana is an armchair full of identity and with its own magnetism, unable to go unnoticed. With the branches curved into the water and then glued one by one, it reveals a different detail of every angle of vision, with a vide range of details, that only nature could bestow.

Cafe 6116

Ferdinand Bol and Rembrandt van Rijn captured them in the 17th century portraits of aristocrats. In the 20th century, the Persian carpets on top of the table emerged to the average households and disappeared in the nineties. The contemporary collection Café 6116 is inspired on this. The full collection contains a dining table, three coffee tables and floor tiles in which actual Persian carpets are processed. That carpets carry memories and secrets in them. Those memories are captures. The construction comes in two colours; anthracite steel and a hand polished bronze.

QWERTY

Sooner or later, we all end up by falling asleep on our computer’s keyboard. Turning the archetypal image of a keyboard into a sofa bed, QWERTY holds you on its soft keys while working in the office or at home, bringing a pinch of irony in our daily life. Anyway QWERTY is much more than a sofa bed. Thanks to micro electric motors controlled by a remote control, every single keycushion is adjustable to give total freedom. In this way, the furniture becomes a unique and comfortable support.
