'I like it when someone creates a beautiful object that is also functional because it becomes something that is a pleasure to use. Beauty and functionality, elegance and timelessness must live together.’ – Valerio Mazzei, President, Edra
With legendary art director Massimo Morozzi, founders Valerio and Monica Mazzei launched Edra in the final days of the Memphis movement, developing a research hub where designers including Fernando and Humberto Campana helped establish Edra's reputation for art, innovation and a fascination for the avant-garde. The vocabulary of the Brazilian designers found a home with Edra and a collection of remarkable pieces followed. Today, their work including the Cipria sofa is widely collected both privately and by galleries and museums. Launched in 2009, the Cipria is composed of nine structural cushions that appear as powder puffs, their comfort enhanced by Edra’s innovative Gellyfoam® which in combination, remarks Edra, are as soft to the touch as a caress.
Fernando & Humberto Campana
Born in the province of Sao Paolo in 1961, Fernando Campana studied industrial design at the Brazilian Museum of Sculpture after graduating as an architect. While his brother Humberto Campana was born in 1953 and followed the same course in industrial design after studying law. From their working studio in Sao Paulo they began to build an international reputation following their exhibition 'The Uncomfortables' that launched in 1989. It was this show that caught the eye of Massimo Morozzi, Art Director for Edra, who today is one of the Campana's biggest supporters. Since 1994 the Campana brother have collaborated with Edra on a collection that is both provocative and fun. Their work is found in the permanent collections of museums around the world, and as well as an ongoing collaboration with Edra, they have worked with Alessi, Vitra, Cappellini and Brazilian shoe maker Melissa.
