L'Amuse-Bouche

​

Initially inspired by the tropical fauna and flora of Brazil -a country and culture close to my heart - I chose to marry my two beloved environments - the Tropics and the Mediterranean in an artistic, design collection that plays with tones and textures to create a percussion of vibrant patterns. 

In the photographic presentation, I  further developed the idea adding nuances of each regional cuisine - alternative title  - When the Mediterranean and the Tropics meet... in the kitchen.

​

Sandía was my very first cushion design and represents the beginning of my story, this inspired the title of the collection - L'Amuse-Bouche - combined with the cuisine elements.

This design derives from one of my painting on paper experiments made using watercolour, drawing the colour palette from Brazilian toucans. 

​

All cushion fabrics are made with 100% organic cotton and 100% recycled fibre made with recycled polyester, old clothing and used plastic bottles.
