OUR DESIGN HETEROGENOUSLY FITS INTO THE CREATION OF EXCLUSIVE INTERIOR. IT DRAWS FROM THE TIMELESS FORMULA OF PRE-WAR HOUSES, CONSENTING IT WITH THE CHARACTER OF CONTEMPORARY INTERIOR.

Furnitures and lamps were created under the influence of many inspirations, taken from places that are the cradle of European design, such as Milan, Barcelona, Paris or Berlin. In these cities new trends in the world of design are still being set. It is happening in an exceptional way there, because it is not torn off a centuries-old tradition. The subtle combination of old things with what we call contemporary, is not only an art that requires enormous artistry of the design, but also the domain of our company. During the development of the project, two intentions constantly accompany us - the preservation of the testimony of Warsaw culture before the war, which in glory years did not differ from European capitals and an interdisciplinary search for inspiration in functional art, literature, sociology, anthropology, and even psychology. It is a constant tracking of the new solutions and opportunities, but also the needs of looking at objects not only in a usable way. The clash of these two trends, combining the needs of modernity with the tradition, defines our thinking about contemporary design, set in their own recognized identity.
