Serafini is an Italian brand that sits at the intersection of history and innovation. Situated in Chiampo, Italy, a region internationally renowned for its marble production, Serafini creates cutting-edge products using a combination of time-honored craftsmanship and advanced technology. Their collection of furniture and home objects is the epitome of design-driven luxury, with pieces that are both timeless and contemporary.
Serafini’s focus on marble is a hallmark of their creations. The process of transforming raw stone into polished works of art is a delicate and meticulous one. Their designs include iconic furniture pieces like the Ana Chair, where marble meets brass and fabric to create a timeless statement piece or the exquisite detail in the Lavanche Dining Table. The skilled artisans at Serafini elevate marble into more than just a surface; they turn it into a tactile experience that speaks to the senses.. The designs are bold, yet refined — combining sculptural elegance with practicality.

Serafini is a brand for those who appreciate the enduring beauty of marble and the artistry behind its transformation. Their designs reflect a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, making them perfect for spaces that demand both beauty and substance.
Créer: Crafting Concrete Into Sculptural Works of Art
Fumi Ashtray from Créer.
Créer, founded by Jana and Marek Bilko in 2016, has quickly become a brand synonymous with innovation and artistry in concrete. As their tagline suggests, Creer is about being "Concretely Different." The Bilkos' passion for working with concrete challenges the traditional notion that the material is only suitable for rough, industrial applications. Instead, they transform it into finely crafted, minimalist pieces that showcase its versatility and beauty.
Concrete has an inherent unpredictability, and the Bilkos' have embraced this by developing techniques that push the boundaries of what concrete can achieve. Over the years, they have perfected their craft, mastering the delicate balance between design, form, and texture. The result is a range of products that celebrate both the material and the creative process.
One standout piece from Creer is the Fumi Ashtray in an anthracite concrete finish. A perfect example of their design philosophy, this ashtray is both functional and sculptural, adding a touch of refined sophistication to any space. Its solid, weighty form ensures it stays in place while the smooth finish makes it easy to clean. Creer’s ashtray is designed for those who appreciate the finer details, offering a product that feels personal and distinct.
In addition to the Fumi Ashtray, Creer offers a variety of products all available on Vida Curada and made from concrete in shades like natural, anthracite, and terracotta. Each product is a testament to the brand’s commitment to design and quality, making everyday objects feel extraordinary. Whether used in the kitchen, bathroom, or living room, Creer’s creations are a celebration of minimalism, craftsmanship, and timeless beauty.
Luxcambra: Lighting That Elevates the Atmosphere
Arles S Table Lamp from Luxcambra BY Mariano Chitarrini.
Based in Barcelona, Luxcambra is a lighting brand that combines contemporary design with a deep understanding of the emotional impact of light. Known for their sculptural, artistic lighting designs, Luxcambra produces fixtures that are not just functional but also beautiful expressions of form and light. Each piece is carefully crafted to transform the way a space feels, adding both warmth and sophistication.
Among Luxcambra’s standout designs is the Arles Table Lamp, part of the larger Arles Collection, which tells a story through its unique design. The Arles Lamp features parallel, concentric wood slats that act as a light diffuser, creating organic curves and an inviting glow. These slats, available in different sizes, not only soften the light but also produce intricate, atmospheric reflections that make the lamp a focal point in any room.
Crafted from MDF (medium-density fibreboard) and finished with a brown cotton cable, the Arles Lamp adds a cozy, mysterious touch to any space. Available with or without a white pergacolor light diffuser, the lamp’s versatility ensures it can complement any interior. The organic design and elegant use of wood in the Arles range make it the perfect addition for creating a warm, inviting atmosphere.
Luxcambra’s approach is all about using light to enhance the beauty of the surroundings, making their designs perfect for those who value not only functionality but also the artistic potential of light.
