Known for moving freely between vintage and contemporary, Candida Tabet was invited to sign Firma Casa's new unique and limited production, which will be on display at SP-Arte 2018. It is a collection of lamps composed of nine chandeliers, available in white, opal, iridescent and smoke shades.

[quote author="Candida Tabet"]I have always been fond of the harmony of the infinite forms of the balustrade, an architectural element so frequent in the aesthetics of the past. When I began to build and move with the configurations of the domes, I realized the opportunity to move in vertical waves , rejecting symmetry and rigor, and exploring the continuous flow that the union of the pieces offers[/quote]

For Firma Casa, the importance of design lies in the exclusivity of the piece and the refinement applied by hand. That is why the brand invited the architect for this new collection. "The pieces are at the limit of what is possible to do by hand, whether due to the size of the hand-blown glass objects, or even in terms of precision and mastery of the fittings", says Candida.

All production results in rare and sculptural objects, in a unique and limited production, manifesting meticulous craftsmanship and an innovative approach to materials. In her first solo exhibition, Candida Tabet reveals a powerful commitment to design. One that knows no boundaries, that It starts with the biggest gestures and ends with the smallest details.
