The first Perfidia collection explores the mutualism between artisan techniques and industrialized manufacturing methods. It is an investigation into the relationship between crafts and automated processes that seeks to highlight the natural characteristics of each method and Material. The furniture has been developed through a dialogue between the artisan and innovation, maintaining the inherence of the process and its manual strokes. To paraphrase the Mexican writer Octavio Paz: “between the timeless time of the museum, and the accelerated time of the machine, these pieces palpitate human time.”
Perfection, existing in the “imperfections” of artisanal methods, is the tool that bestows soul to each piece, moving away from mass production. Steel rod structures are the common language of the collection, achieving a visual sophistication that pushes toward innovation. Sand-casted bronze details contrast against automated manufacturing components, such as CNC-carved wooden parts or laser-cut metal parts.
The Perfidia collection aims to value and revitalize the golden age of the 70s in Latin America; times of fervent and prosperous creation with a personal stamp in various disciplines; the time of Los Panchos and Lucho Gatica. Through this lens, each design is an act of complicity with our ancestors, parents, or grandparents, to honor them in the present day and engage the world with their legacy. Pieces that, like a bolero, bring memories to home and preserve the energy of what we were and the possibilities of what we can create.
