LinBrasil pays tribute to the late Sergio Rodrigues and presents a collection of his iconic modernist interiors.
In the 1950s this brilliant and versatile architect-designer was at the cutting-edge of Brazilian design, the first to give an irreverent and playful twist to Brazil's signature materials, wood, leather and cane. His work thus inspired the architects Oscar Niemeyer and Lúcio Costa to use his pieces for the interiors of their futuristic Brasilia projects. The internationally acclaimed furniture of Sergio Rodrigues is produced exclusively by licensee LinBrasil.
The use of rare solid wood gives life and form to this collection, which distils 60 years of creativity into timeless interiors where iconic design marries supreme comfort.
During his long career, the architect and designer is estimated to have designed more than 1,200 pieces of furniture.
The BRAZIL S/A collective show thus opens with a tribute to the vision and legacy of the late Sergio Rodrigues.
There's no chance to avoid falling in love with the wonderful miniatures replicating Sergio Rodrigues furniture, produced by mini:Brasil company. They are all true to scale: the construction, materials and colours are exactly the same of the originals. (www.minibrasildesign.com.br)
