About the Designer
Brothers Humberto Campana, lawyer, and Fernando Campana, architect, have been working together in San Paolo since 1983. They came into the limelight in 1989 with the furniture exhibition provocatively entitled "Gli inconfortabili" (The Inconsolable), a political manifesto rather than functional objects. Their radical point of view is strengthened by using everyday materials and industrial rubbish. Handmade products represent the possibility of social redemption in a developing country. Their intention is, however, to find a way for Brazilian design, to avoid European colonization.
