A piece inspired by the simple, effortless embrace of an envelope—carrying a letter within, like a hug. Crafted from wide, interlaced leather straps that wrap around a soft, cozy inner layer, the armchair takes shape. Balancing robustness and softness, its design evokes memories of vernacular culture and the tanneries of the designer’s homeland, Rio Grande do Sul. From the exploration of simple forms in pursuit of maximum ergonomics, timelessness emerges—rooted in both the quality of materials and the sophistication of the production process.

A 100% Brazilian design brand, we specialize in creating exclusive furniture pieces, each signed by one of 14 renowned designers under the curatorship of Clarissa Schneider.
We value care and delicacy—emotion and meaning. For us, every detail counts: from foam crafted with state-of-the-art machinery and raw materials sourced exclusively from Brazil, to partnerships that celebrate the richness of our cultural heritage.
Our creative process unfolds like a grand symphony, gaining rhythm with each stage—from sketching to sculpting, calendering to stitching, machining to cutting.
If the art of bringing furniture to life is akin to conducting an orchestra—with cutting-edge tools in the hands of a skilled team—then our store is a dance of interiors. Designed by Studio Arthur Casas, it was honored with the prestigious Building of the Year 2025 award.
Every choice contributes to a larger harmony. Volumes, proportions, geometries, and fittings—each element sparks dialogue and evokes a sense of meaningful complementarity.
