Under the inspired hands of the Brazilian designers, folklore, constructivist and functionalist concepts were combined to give rise to sophisticated and innovative furniture.

| A scheming and attractive lamp. Manufactured from a single plastic band rolled up on it, the structure can be manipulated to change the form and the orientation of the light. | The shape of this armchair is impressive by its graphic and sculptural aspects. Tribal mask or wink to sadomasochism, this noteworthy piece was at that time very avant-gardist and remains very modern. | The Kaeko coffee table is a perfect illustration of Rafic Farah conception of design : simple and sophisticated at the same time. | The emblematic part of the work of Reno Bonzon is certainly the rocking chair "Gaivota", probably the most rewarded creation in Brazil, combining at the same time aestheticism and ergonomy. |
