Sossego | Modern Brazilian Design

A week of Modern Art in 1922 birthed the Brazilian Modernism movement which was further propelled by Le Corbusier’s whirlwind travels through South America in the 1920s. French was the most widely spoken foreign language and architects flooded to the movement. The end of WWII propelled a further influx of Europeans to Brazil, precipitating a cultural exchange which continues today.

We are committed to using only sustainably harvested wood. Our manufacturing facility undergoes frequent and rigorous IBAMA audits to retain its certification of 100% sustainably harvested woods. For each product delivered we fund the planting of a tree in Brazil.

Our furniture is hand assembled and finished by craftsmen in Southern Brazil. Eight separate sandings create the buttery smooth finish of our products.
