About the Item
Welcome Divan by Sofia Alvarado
One of a Kind
Dimensions: W 75 x D 220 x H 85.
Materials: Guayacán wood, lacquered metal, Velvet.
FI is an ornamental artist who embodies the creative Revelation of the sensitivity of the innate being, with uninhibited freedom by proposing a global universe between furniture, objects, scenery, sculpture, drawing, painting and letters. Inspired by the poetry that gives life, nature, the accuracy of imperfection, history, architecture, dreams, time and everything that educates beyond reason; transforms feelings and thoughts into stories to later create physically palpable pieces and scenarios by merging design with art, a principle that allows her to experiment with shapes, materials and color combinations, using all kinds of geometries, which manage to represent
situations of an imagined reality.
Sofia Alvarado, founder of Fi, is an architect and designer with the sensitivity necessary to recognize that sustainability is only possible where all actors prosper and human rights are respected, so the ideology of the study is based on the concept of Human Design, which promotes detailed work, integral design of things and efficiency on a human scale, in a tribute to Latin american handmade Craft that has been suggested for years by the insecurity of ignorance. It uses technology but does not abandon the artisans, mainly it
dignifies them and empowers, so that they appropriate their work to the fullest, and thus achieve luxury artisans.
All pieces made in Fi are handmade in Panama by single / unique or limited edition,either under collection or to design to order.
Fi - Sofia Alvarado born and based in Panama and graduated in architecture from the
School of Architecture of Latin America and the Caribbean, Panama.
She has participated in the Ibero-American Design Biennial in its editions bid16 / bid18 / bid20, Madrid, Spain and MADE Latina and in Sao Paulo Design week, 2019, Sao Paulo, Brazil with its Prisma, Áurea, Welcome Back and Beautiful City collections.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
