Campana Brothers

Since 1983, Brazilian brothers Fernando (born 1961) and Humberto (born 1953) Campana have been solidly building their career, achieving both national and international recognition. In 2019, the studio celebrated its 35th anniversary acknowledged as pioneers of disruptive design, which led them to create a groundbreaking language in their field.

Strongly rooted in Brazilian culture and traditions, their work yet carries universal values in its core, such as freedom and human dignity, by encouraging self-identity searching through life experiences. Incorporating the idea of transformation and reinvention, their creative process raises everyday materials to nobility, bringing not only creativity into design, but also Brazilian characteristics – the colors, the mixtures, the creative chaos – the triumph of simple solutions, in an artistic and poetic way.

Based in Sao Paulo, Estudio Campana is constantly investigating new possibilities within design: from furniture making to architecture, landscaping, fashion, scenography and more. It creates bridges and dialogues where the exchange of information is also a source of inspiration

Campana pieces are part of permanent collections of renowned cultural institutions such as the Centre Pompidou and the Muse Des Arts Dcoratifs, Paris, MoMa, New York, the Museum of Modern Art of Sao Paulo and also the Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein.
