The Folclore Collection is inspired by Brazilian popular legends that were spread throughout the years by storytellers in the very different regions of Brazil. It’s a tribute to this rich culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Within this collection, Dimitrih Correa aims for an authorial and original aesthetic for himself that comes from a huge mix of references both aesthetically and functional, from Brazilian modernist masters to Japanese traditional woodworkers and from Brazilian Folclore to English Literature. On this series, everything comes together in an anthropophagic way to be digested and then presented in four initial pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gia Table<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Gia Table is inspired by the Vit\u00f3ria R\u00e9gia legend, an ancient story from indigenous people of the Amazon forest. The tale tells that a beautiful indigenous woman was obsessed in love with the moon, until one day she falls asleep on the riverside and gets drained by the water. So when she died, the moon decided to take her back as the beautiful Vit\u00f3ria R\u00e9gia plant, one of the biggest in the world, that only flourish during the night with the moonlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tata Floor Lamp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The Tata Floor Lamp is inspired by the Boitat\u00e1 legend. It is represented by a huge snake with flames that protects the forests from hunters. On this project we also present the new magnetic wireless lamps that can be positioned all over the metal surface in several different ways. Also it has a powerful and last generation battery that can last up to 14 hour long without charging. The charge is full complete in 1 hour. And a dimmer system is used to adjust the light intensity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Per\u00ea Chair<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The Per\u00ea Chair uses the cantilever system to create comfort and playfulness, it can also be used as a stool as the backrest is removable being also convenient for transportation matters. It’s inspiration comes from one of the most famous legends in Brazil, the Saci Perer\u00ea, a magical figure represented by a black boy that does not have one leg and plays tricks to people and animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Rupi Lamp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Finally the last piece of these primary four is the Rupi table lamp. It has also the magnetic wireless lamp that allows much versatility. It is inspired by the Curupira legend, a boy that has the feet backwards so he confuses the hunters in the forests, he is also a protector of the nature and uses a bow and arrow to guard animals and trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
All pieces are traditionally handmade with solid reclaimed hardwoods, the species used were Pinho de Riga, Peroba Rosa e do Campo and Cabre\u00fava Vermelha. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The metals used are all carbon steels with electrostatic matte painting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lamps are 6W LEDs with 12v \u00edon lithium batteries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The colors and wood finishes can be personalized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
