Vase Amorfa
Susana Bastos & Marcelo Alvarenga
The siblings Susana Bastos, artist and fashion designer,
and Marcelo Alvarenga, architect, are the founders of the
Brazilian furniture and object design studio ALVA. Cleverly
intertwining their backgrounds in architecture and art,
Marcelo and Susana create contemporary and eye-catching
design objects.
For Gardeco, they conceived the ITA and AMORFA-lines
that consist of beautiful vases in soft soapstone, a natural
crystalline rock sourced locally in the region of Minas
Gerais, Brazil. Using a lathe and scraping tools, solid blocks
of soapstone are turned into strikingly beautiful creations
with stand-out silhouettes
