Nova Collection: The vanguard experimental exploration of Bossa Furniture

Lucas Recchia, born in 1992, on an island in the south part of Brazil starts his career as a designer in 2018 with his first solo show for the avant-garde gallery Firma Casa in São Paulo and quickly catches the attention of the whole country as the first Brazilian designer to develop glass techniques in furniture design. He incorporates the potential of recycled glass with ancient techniques with solar energy used by artisans with worldwide experience.

“My purpose is to mix the boundaries between art and design from the standpoint of a not-too obvious functionality and also express/add a Brazilian element that is not focused on the traditional modern Brazilian furniture made of wood."

Juliana Lima Vasconcellos, an interior designer, architect, and furniture designer with international acclaim, stands as one of the prominent figures of her generation. For her, it’s all about a philosophy that truly resonates—blending the accessible with the extraordinary, finding beauty in everyday things, and equally celebrating the value of rare items.

Domingos Tótora, a native of Maria da Fé, a town nestled in the Mantiqueira Mountains in southern Minas Gerais, Brazil, has returned to his hometown after his studies, choosing cardboard (recycled material) as the cornerstone of his work, which navigates between art and design. His exquisitely crafted pieces include vases, fruit bowls, centerpieces, and furniture, drawing inspiration from the primary colors of nature, such as tree bark, stones, and earth. The texture of his objects captures the play of light and shadow, echoing the intensity of sunlight as it traverses the valleys.

"I establish a dialogue with the material until the moment when only it speaks."
