CAMPANA
Campana — an internationally renowned Brazilian studio of collectible and experimental design, founded by brothers Humberto and Fernando Campana in 1984.
Their visual language has become a cornerstone of contemporary design, exerting a profound influence on the industry and cultural landscape. The studio's practice encompasses object design, art pieces, architectural and landscape projects, scenography, and fashion design. Works by Campana are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
The Campana approach is grounded in experimentation with form, materials, and handcrafted techniques, where improvisational freedom plays a vital role. The studio reinterprets everyday resources, transforming them into expressive objects at the intersection of design and art. Their works are built on contrasts: the delicate alongside the monumental, the handcrafted against the industrial, local artisanal traditions within a global context. A notable place is occupied by the Bolotas series, created in collaboration with contemporary artists and brands, including KAWS.
