Percival Lafer, an esteemed name in Brazilian furniture design, was celebrated for his innovative use of materials and unique seating designs, which often featured distinctive leg styles. Sergio Rodriguez, a Uruguayan-born architect and designer who found success in Brazil, was known for his sculptural furniture creations, while Joaquim Tenreiro, a master craftsman, brought a refined simplicity to his designs that blended traditional craftsmanship with modern sensibilities.
