Calligraphy Study

Calligraphy Study is an electric height-adjustable desk designed for children who learn Chinese calligraphy. Calligraphy is usually written while standing, so the desk height can be changed between 56 and 110 centimetres with a control panel that shows the current height. The desktop can be tilted from 0 to 60 degrees for drawing and reading. The frame is made of solid wood with traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and rattan wickerwork covers the screen. Wooden holders keep brushes in place with magnets. A small mobile cabinet stores paper rolls and scrolls.

Infinity

Infinity is a console designed for living spaces. The console measures 1800 mm by 800 mm by 450 mm. Its base is carved in wood and formed as a geometric alveolar structure, softened by a series of curves. The curved forms are inspired by waves and other organic shapes found in nature. High-end craftsmanship from the artisan tradition of Brianza made the complex curves possible. An unusual finish is applied to the outer surface. Infinity can hold objects, works of art and lighting accessories, and also serves as a decorative element.

Armchair

Luar

The Luar armchair is the result of a transformation into a piece of furniture of the iconographic stone sidewalk patterns of Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, the designers' hometown. The armchair presents a composition of contrasts: Wood, with all its slenderness and transparency, contrasts with upholstered elements that are robust, soft and comfortable. Its shape comes from a technique that the companies Lattoog and Schuster have researched over ten years. Pressed wood micro laminates that allow seamless, curvilinear, and highly resistant structures, with optimal use of the material.
