CAUÊ
2019
The Itabira Collection stems from the nostalgic anguish of being born in a city surrounded by progress and destruction. This same opulence is tragedy. We were inspired by family stories about the precarious mining that developed on the outskirts of the mining area in the 1970s in Itabira, Minas Gerais.
The Cauê Bench pays homage to Itabira's Cauê Peak. A pulverized mountain, crushed into billions of chips, as Drummond describes it. The bench's design is inspired by this world of mining and prospecting. The seat rests on a wooden (Freijó) top. Completely freestanding, the upholstery's design comes from the pans used in mining activities. The combination of materials (wood, steel, fabric) creates diverse possibilities for color and texture combinations.
