Solid Sungkai wood
The Sungkai wood, a type of large tree from Indonesia, is a low-density material that allows us to shape it easily, resulting in furniture with unique designs. Many of our pieces are made from this wood, which comes from sustainable forests.
After a delicate and beautiful process, we achieve furniture of very good quality and durability, ensuring they can live in your home for many years.
How to care for Sungkai?
Clean with a cloth moistened in soapy water.
Wipe with a clean damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive products.
Solid Trembesí wood
In a Wabi-Sabi home, nature is always present, which is why we choose furniture made of Trembesí wood.
The Trembesí, also called the rain tree, is found in subtropical areas where the humid climate facilitates its growth.
Durability is the main characteristic of this type of wood, guaranteeing the longevity of all furniture. Its trunk is large, allowing the grain to be more homogeneous.
The color may vary depending on the age of the tree, so truly each piece is unique with no possibility of two pieces being exactly the same.
This type of natural wood has its own life; even though it is no longer among roots and soil, it can undergo changes. Over time, the appearance of cracks can be completely normal.
How to care for Trembesí?
Clean with a dry cloth.
Do not expose to temperature changes.
Do not immerse in water.
Do not use abrasive products.
Microcement
Microcement is an innovative and versatile material known for its strength, durability, and contemporary aesthetics. Microcement furniture consists of an MDF surface covered by a mixture of refined cement and warm white pigment. This composition allows for creating a smooth, continuous, non-rough, and joint-free surface, ideal for modern and minimalist designs.
Microcement is highly durable, abrasion-resistant, and impact-resistant, making it ideal for everyday furniture.

Rattan
Rattan is another essential material in a Wabi-Sabi home. Thanks to the resistance and flexibility of the stems, it can be molded to create unique pieces with personality.
Choosing this material for your home will help you create fresh and light spaces for life.
