airy, visually pliant and weather resilient in brilliant modular furniture by celebrated designer Stephen Burks.
Hand-woven in South Africa by artisans working closelywith the designer, TaTu meshes traditional with urbane.

Design With Conscience

Enchant, inspire and transform applies not only to the products created by Artecnica, but also a world view. In 2002 Artecnica founded Design With Conscience, a program for Artecnica to manufacture and produce products in accordance with humanitarian and environmentally
friendly principles. Artecnica has invited talented designers of international fame to contribute new ideas to an everexpanding design collection and to team them with artisans in need around the world, invigorating commerce and assisting surrounding communities.

O duplo regresso!




Duplo regresso, primeiro porque estivémos demasiado tempo ausentes para o nosso gosto, mas felizmente porque não temos parado com tanto para fazer e em segundo lugar porque está a chegar a nova colecção da TRANSGLASS, pertencente ao novo objectivo da Artecnica "Design with conscience" também desenhada pelo Tord Boontje e pela Emma Woffenden.
