About the Item

The outstanding "Serpa" bench was designed by Ronald Sasson in 2019. Homage to one of the most important visual arts collectives that existed in Brazil, and, as the name already indicates, refers to one of the founders of the group Ivan Serpa. The piece is inspired by the shapes and forms represented in Ivan's painting. As a result of the creative process, the bench is a fun and elegant design, made of steel tubes and a naval MDF base. The bench can be manufactured in different size options: 200 x 46 x 43 H cm 240 x 46 x 43 H cm 270 x 46 x 43 H cm Sasson is now considered one of the most prominent names of the contemporary design scene in Brazil. Ronald Sasson is from Curitiba born in 1967, since adolescence is already related to design, in the elaboration of experimental objects. At the age of 18, he moved to Paris, where he had contact with conceptual and neo-experimental art galleries, after a year in Paris, completely immersed in the plastic arts market, moved to Israel where he collected more information. Already in Brazil, he worked as a plastic artist for more than 7 years, acquiring the seal of being selected for several art salons. Already at this time he began to immerse himself in the world of design in a self-taught way, he always sought a trait that merged his authorial artistic base with the industrial and replication possibilities, he has since obtained more than 26 international awards including 5 IF Design Award Germany, 4 German Design Award Nominee, 6 Good Design Award Chicago, 7 A’Design Award Italy, 1 Restaurant & Bar Award England also 1 the Design Prize of The Casa Vogue Brazil 18, and the Prize of the Museum of the Brazilian House.

Balanço Bench by Rodrigo Ohtake, Brazilian Contemporary Design
By Rodrigo Ohtake
Located in Sao Paulo, SP
The Balanço Bench was created by the Brazilian contemporary designer Rodrigo Ohtake, in 2019. The mix of materials is the differential in this series. While wood is used as a seat, a metal plate, thick and curved, raises the first material from the ground in a light way and with minimal contact, both with the floor and with the wood. The structure is made of stainless steel and Cumaru Wood. Definitely a one of a kind and unique piece. Graduated at FAU / USP in 2009, with a period of studies at the Polytechnic of Milan, Rodrigo Ohtake is always in search of his own architectural style. Passionate about colors and free forms, he collaborated with architects Mario Biselli, Alvaro Puntoni, and Frenchman Patrick Jouin, in addition to working with his father, Ruy, from 2008 to 2016. In addition to working in the offices, he participated as a curatorial assistant in the exhibitions "Viver na Floresta", curated by Abílio Guerra, "O Coração da Cidade: Invention of Spaces" by Júlio Katinsky...
