After seeing the potential beneath the master artisans’ skills,
Chiara and Arianna found the right path to create a twist full
design for the famous mid-century brands, Essential Home
and DelightFULL.
A productive brainstorming gave wings to several ideas and
possibilities the Italian designers believe that this task was
the ultimate break to showcase their Made in Italy legacy
and discover Portugal’s strong craftsmanship techniques, like
metalworking, wood carving, porcelain, hand-painted tiles,
and jewelry manufactory. The ancient Portuguese crafts are
a natural inspiration source for the Studiopepe’s designers.
Chiara fell in love with the traditional Portuguese metalworking
techniques because this is a craft that can give to the
product several original forms. On the other hand, despite her
fascination for the magnificent forms and sculptural value,
Arianna enjoyed the etching technic, a classic manufacture
craft that evokes the past through its history.
“All of these elements stimulate us and we are curious
to test it in the Design with a Contemporary Twist, and
this is a positive challenge which motivates us a lot.”
– Ariana added.
