Minimalist, modern, and timeless. I like to make products with exceptional materials that are unique and can be kept for a lifetime. It's a balance of texture, shadow, light and geometry.

Sources of creative desire:


MARBERA

For the material, nature, of course. Each block of marble is unique, with inimitable veins which leaves wide possibilities of experimentation and imagination. For design, Japanese design in all its forms. Always at the forefront and timeless, it's very inspiring.

What do you do when you are not in the studio:


MARBERA

I go to Italy, to the workshop. I like to follow the production, talking with our artisans. Or meeting artists for collaborations. Sometimes around a table with a glass of Chablis and my friends, that's life too!
