For the Joaquim collection, designer Giorgio Bonaguro was inspired by the soft design of Brazilian furniture between the 40s and 60s, and by the modernist architecture of Niemeyer, Costa, Vilanova Artigas and Bo Bardi. In aesthetic terms, the linear and geometric shapes are a tribute to the simple and elegant lines of Joaquim Tenreiro, considered one of the fathers of modern tropical design. For technical aspects, the Joaquim table collection was designed to reclaim waste, taking on the principles of upcycling and sustainability, which are part of the pillars of Brazilian creation. Produced by Tacchini, the Joaquim coffee tables and side tables are composed of a metal structure combined with a marble top.
