The Wedding Set within an abandoned chapel, The Wedding reimagines ceremony as something enduring, where what is fleeting becomes permanent. A symbolic union of contrasts takes form: feminine and masculine, softness and structure, intuition and form. Here, ritual is carved into material, and space becomes a quiet stage for encounter, balance, and shared presence. For this installation, we crafted a rug in our Casablanca weave, using fique fiber interwoven with copper and stainless steel. The weave was intentionally chosen to create a dialogue with the existing floor of the space, echoing its geometry and grounding the installation within the chapel’s material memory. A composition where natural fibers and metal meet, reflecting the balance at the heart of the piece. We thank @sten.studio and @joseschnaider for inviting us to collaborate on this project at @alcova.milano during Milan Design Week. Discover more at verdi.com.co

Aurella and Vireon share a love for design. They first met last year at @alcova.milano , at Villa Bagatti, crossing paths at the entrance of Sten Studio’s Cosmic Resonance. Drawn by their shared fascination for stone, they began exchanging thoughts, an instant connection that felt both natural and inevitable. A few days later, Vireon invited her to a candlelit harp concert by @michelarpa . That night, she fell in love with him, and with the music that now echoes through their story. Nine months later, they were engaged. For their wedding, they envisioned something intimate yet deeply expressive, unconventional, layered with meaning, and reflective of their personalities. They found it in an abandoned chapel within the Ospedale Militare Baggio in Milan, the city where their story began. Aurella dreamed of flowers by @hamishpowell , whose sculptural compositions blur the line between nature and art. Vireon made sure that dream became reality, even inviting @michelarpa to perform once again. Together, they collaborated with @verdidesign design to create a custom carpet woven in copper and stainless steel, casting a subtle shimmer as guests walk through the space. Seeking to complete the atmosphere, they turned to @penhaligons , selecting the fragrance Halfeti and their stone diffusers to hold the memory of the day in a scent. Everything was ready. They arrived, exchanged their vows… and chose to engrave them in stone. — The Wedding, 2026 Sten Studio With deep gratitude: To Diana, Martin, Gustavo, Victor, Omar, and the artisans behind their workshops, for producing every piece in just four weeks.

Key reflections from @sten.studio debut in Milano Design Week at @alcova.milano . - The real achievement was the commitment of the entire Sten Studio team—working against the clock on multiple projects at once without ever compromising our quality. Deep gratitude to each one of them. Cheers to their creativity and management. We killed it! @tcastilloo_ @lilianaradilla @ennnriqe_ @andres_sulkin @garayenrique1996 @angel.zemog - In stones we trust - Leave no trace; we literally picked up until the very last grain of sand we could see. - One scene repeated itself a thousand times: people walking in, woooow, photos, videos, more photos, cards taken, and then off to the next room. Grateful to have witnessed it over and over.. - Pursue what you love, and don’t be afraid to show your vision💚🪨 - Design from the imagination—not to please the market - Our authenticity is our best shield - Eyes to the sky, hands on the heart and feet on the ground @miguel_guillen - Nurture your heart, not your ego - Be present - You are where you choose to be (@nicolehelfon ) - Be open and kind to everyone—you never know who you’re talking to - Collaboration only adds more magic @mrbrowncott @wood.milano - To @rickygr and @rgrart —for teaching me an impeccable know-how and mastery in bringing an exhibition to life - Grateful to the hands of every workshop that’s part of this journey - Grateful for companies like Spazio Meta, who recovered the sand and pedestals for a second life. No waste was produced - To @alejandro_ramoroz for his stunning photography of the show - Thankful and lucky to have shared this experience with people who occupy very important spaces of my heart real estate. - @luvaldesg is about to give birth - As long as the schlampes stick together, we shall never be defeated - Happy to have shared this experience with my friend of @diaphan_studio @alessandrogiacombrelli @dominiquewol - Had the best roommate for the week @joseesperon I already envisioned Chapter 2. But first, very happy to come back home to continue with our current and the new projects. New pieces and a new world within our world are starting to emerge as a prelude for our 2026 collection.

It’s been almost 4 years since @sten.studio was born. Some of you know that it started as an accident that quickly pushed my creative constraints and became a passion. I will never forget the first time I did zona MACO in 2019; I remember seeing the top Mexican designers with unique booths. Mine was just a white cube with my pieces because I had no idea how design fairs work. 4 years later, many good things have happened; the studio evolved from an I to us; we have been able to explore new ideas and materials, and we have been determined to open our market in the US. Yesterday, we were finalists in the category for best residential stool/bench in the Best of Year Awards of the Interior Design Magazine. Surprisingly, from more than a hundred ones and more than 700 submissions, we shared ours with Hector Esrawe, who has been a very important reference for us in the studio and for Mexican Design. Hector took the trophy, and I am thrilled and honored that we were together and that Mexico won. I am celebrating today my team, where our hard work is getting, our identity as a studio, with whom we are starting to be surrounded, and the joy of being able to work with such special materials that really fulfill me. So... Cheers to Sten Studio, Cheers to Tere, Lili, Braulio, Enrique, Aya, and David for supporting me in my vision and becoming a family for me. Cheers to Hector for being the reference he is. And cheers to the Mexican design. Life gets better and better, and organically it rewards us when things are done with love and passion. @interiordesignmag #boyawards
