The Cuban Bar Cabinet

The Cuban

The Cuban is a bar cabinet designed for storage and social use. A humidor lined with cedar wood is integrated into the cabinet structure, providing a controlled environment for cigars, while the interior holds whiskey. The curved doors are made of flexible plywood with a high gloss lacquer finish, and marble is applied to the top surface. The upper surface can also be used as a deck for turntables and music equipment. Internal cable channels and power outlets allow several devices to operate through a single connection. A digital system controls humidity and lighting.

Tau Murano  Small Table

Tau Murano

Tau Murano is a small coffee table made of two blown glass elements joined by a thin metal band. The two-tone design gives the table a soft shape and a luminous appearance. The soda-lime glass is blown on a mold following the ancient Murano tradition, and it is then cut and ground by master glassmakers. The main challenge was to create a structure that is stable and reliable while keeping the lightness of the fragile glass. Tau Murano can be used as a coffee table, a bedside table or a decorative object in any room.

Curvline Bookcase

Curvline

Curvline is a self supporting bookcase that explores the structural transformation of thin metal through curvature. Inspired by the dual nature of metal, both flexible and resistant, the design converts material vulnerability into strength by bending and folding the surface. The continuous form acts simultaneously as structure and storage, eliminating the distinction between frame and shelf. With its modular configuration, Curvline allows adaptable compositions while maintaining a clear sculptural identity defined by balance, tension, and refined minimalism.

Accordion Modular Sofa

Accordion

Accordion is a modular sofa built from a single base module. The base module changes size and shape through compression, similar to the bellows of an accordion. Many sofa configurations can be created from one module to suit different spaces. The body is made of high resilience compressible foam, and the wooden side panels are joined by strong ropes and adjustable knobs. Turning the knobs tightens the ropes and compresses the sofa. The sofa can also be compressed for flat pack packaging, which lowers packaging, storage and transport costs.

Takumi

Takumi is a jewelry cabinet that combines Japanese craft principles with contemporary furniture construction. The cabinet has fifteen drawers with chamfered edges and a concealed sliding system that works without lateral panels, creating a floating drawer effect.

The design turns the storage of personal jewelry into a calm and attentive routine.

Grace Lounge Chair

Grace

Grace is a design that translates feelings that a single word can not describe. This in combination with the conviction that form does not always follow function, but should be able to follow emotion. The result is a sculpture-like design made from a 3D printed frame, partially covered with foam for added comfort and an elastic yet durable fabric. From an aesthetic point of view, it has an elegance and shape that is somehow timeless. It can match different finishes and materials and blend into different environments: from high-end use in a hotel lobby to furniture in a private home.
