The Wide Possibilities of Experimentation and Imagination with Marbera
people • makers
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.

The most important object you have designed so far:
MARBERA
Not an object but, MARBERA company. It's a 360 degree project, a source of creativity and challenges that excite me every day.

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!
