The Tavares Chair




Developed by request of a landmark Lisbon restaurant bearing the same name, the Tavares chair is an object of thoughtful geometric lines, a “Shell” as a chair. Built in black steel, its forms reveal the the simplicity of an object that integrates with its surrounding architecture defining a common space identity.

When Germans get creative...

A Kitchen and a bathroom! Sometimes its amazing to see how creative people can get with our products. Ikarus, a chain of iconic design stores in Germany, managed to integrated our classic items into some of the most different living spaces yet.

Hanging a Pombal composition on the wall and painting the area occupied by the system in a different color, gave this kitchen a life of its own and lots of creative storage.


Combining an Ivy shelving unit to streamline fixtures gave this bathroom a sleak, clean cut look.
