The Cobogo Copacabana Coffee Table was created to furnish a house designed by Oscar Niemeyer. Although contemporary, this piece was inspired by the modernist movement, and pays tribute to an element typical of Brazilian popular architecture: the cobogó. The wood loses its solid aspect to become a structural tapestry over the base.

Among the projects dearest to her are those that use wood as a raw material. “I like the smell of wood, I like to touch it. The relationship of man with this material fascinates me. Our intervention can turn wood into something completely different”.
