The Amazon rainforest, the world’s colossal green lungs and home to innumerable species of flora and fauna, has long been an unrivalled haven of biodiversity. This magnificent provenance of life that reigns over South America scrambles for its own sustenance today. Destructive human practices of indiscriminate lodging, a major problem that the forest faces, is the origin of our new Ibuju collection.
Happy to share first three pieces made with yaré fibre.

Starting from the idea of a “primitive” object as it is a built piece of furniture from wooden logs and the problem of cutting down trees, the proposal is to take advantage of a renewable material such as “Yaré”, there Ibuju is born, a bench made out of this natural fiber, rethinking the design and the manufacturing of native wooden pieces using new and sustainable materials.

NEW TABLE/
Ibuju is a project focused on the Colombian jungle preservation using “yaré” fiber as a sustainable material to replace indiscriminate deforestation.
“Yaré” is the example of the great biodiversity that Colombia has.
This fiber extracted by indigenous communities in the south of Colombia grows attached to trees and has been used by local communities for the development of handcrafts.
This Ibuju project starts with a group of weavers, translating the furniture aesthetics made from wooden blocks in a primitive way, to the use of “yaré” weaving in these same geometries

Emulate Nature coffee table
in the @stahl_band interior.
A new unique piece is based on the idea of weaving organic forms together to emulate the growth patterns found in nature. The work references traditional log wood craftsmanship, reinterpreted through human intervention to create vernacular furniture elements.
Thank you @ricardohoseguera for the photos.

Emulate Nature Armchair
Since the launch of our pieces woven with yaré fiber in 2021, this has been the most challenging piece we have created to date. It took us months to weave, along with a constant process of going back and forth in making decisions about how the piece would “grow.”
Last year, we decided to challenge the traditional weaving method and use it to simulate the natural, random growth of the fiber. Today, there is no greater satisfaction than seeing it brought to life.
Thanks to our friends @rads_wedd and @elisaangel_estudio for photographing the piece.
Liana | Some communities in the Amazon know that lianas or vines can be used to make natural torches; their inner fiber and, in some cases, their resinous sap allow the flame to burn steadily.
DHub, Exhibition “Inspired in Barcelona: Luce”
Antorcha poetically evokes the most primitive way of producing natural light: fire contained in a wooden branch wrapped with vines or lianas, which for Amazonian peoples has symbolized the act of maintaining “the order of the world.”
In response to @stefano.colli ‘sinvitation to design a piece centered on light as the conceptual axis of the exhibition, this new work emerges. It seeks to “weave” and challenge traditional handcraft processes through the use of an uncommon material, such as stainless steel, applied in metal coiling. In doing so, the piece explores and embraces experimental design methods.
Special thanks to @bcd.barcelona , @simonelectric and @dissenyhub for making this exhibition possible.

ART-IN: Cap 02 - Cartografía de Montañas
En colaboración con @studio__fango , presentamos Cartografía de Montañas, una colección de mobiliario que rinde homenaje al camino del arriero y transforma el cuero en experiencia. Cada pieza traduce los símbolos de la arriería en un lenguaje contemporáneo, honrando la herencia de quienes trazaron rutas con ingenio y resistencia.
Descubre esta obra habitable en nuestra tienda del Centro Comercial El Tesoro.
#Vélez #ArtIn
Honored to be part of this wonderful “Crafting community” project curated by my beloved @acarnick . It marks the launch of a new, anual platform to spotlighth creativity through design and art, initiated also by Johannes Schön @johannesschoen and Tatiana Sprick @tatjanasprick
The exhibition is presented by @bocci at @thefoundryberlin until September 14th.
The side table from the Emulate Nature collection, proposes challenging the traditional weaving techniques commonly used in the production of our pieces. The idea is to test the malleability of the fiber, which in a way represents the material’s intelligence, in order to achieve free and somewhat random forms just as nature does.
