My desire to design a basic chair with unique lines pushed me to create a chair named BRO. My main goal was to connect the robust base of the chair with an elegant seat and backrest. The simple wooden frame looks great with thin plywood which gently smoothes out edges and creates a unique piece of furniture. Everybody can find small references from Japanese, Scandinavian, and colorful Ukrainian stylistics in BRO chairs. We believe BRO chairs will be a “must have” item in your house because BRO always has to be near you!

Sergiy Levantin / Designer
1. Greeting + introduce yourself. My name is Sergey Lvov, I am a designer and founder of the Levantin design studio. Since 2012, we have been developing interior items for Ukrainian and foreign manufacturers. 2022 has brought huge challenges for the entire furniture industry, also becoming a time of collaborations and active collaboration between creative teams.
2. How did you get the idea to create this product? The main idea is to create a modern exemplary local product. It was a response to the growing demand for Ukrainian furniture for premium spaces. The Morsetto collection is characterized by functional design that serves the human being: pure, practical materials, elegant workmanship and friendly form.
3. What inspired you when creating the product? One of the inspirations is a vintage solid wood vise that we saw in a carpentry shop in northern Italy. This handicraft tool, with the same name Morsetto, was embodied in the form of rounded wooden legs.
4. What are the advantages of the product? Morsetto is an extensive collection of chairs, armchairs, sofas, beds and tables. It allows you to create a harmonious system of furnishing hotels and residential complexes with a single identity. Starting with chairs and tables, this year we hope to realize other elements of the collection.
5. How do you feel about the product? What emotions does it evoke in you? This collection has become special for us emotionally. Working on it served as a breath of fresh air, allowing me to concentrate on anticipating the expectations of future clients, and dreams of their happy life. A pleasant reference to Italian traditional crafts is a teleport to bright carefree reality, and an emotional provenance for the Morsetto collection, which you can tell your guests about.

Yevhenii Litvinenko / Designer
I found him! A bestseller in which you will get really relaxed ! A long search between convenience , functionality and aesthetic! Sorting through different models and looking at the history of chair production in museums, I spent a long time deciding what this particular chair would be like: comfortable, compact and unrealistically cozy . So it would be comfortable for your hands and your knees would not get numb , you would not hit hard parts with your toes, seams would not disturb , armrests would not hurt elbows and the seat would be comfortable… Having sat in thousands of chairs at exhibitions, I can say with confidence that this is what is needed! Just take it and enjoy!

Dinner Studio / Designers
Hello, we are O Zvolanski and Vitaliy Vorobey.
We are founders of the Dinner Studio. Our story is very common maybe. Both of us were born in Ukraine in different cities though. Everyone was living their own lives, and then we obviously decided to combine our lives with design and entered a private design institute in Kyiv. There we met and it became immediately clear that we were like-minded people despite the fact that we studied different specialties. One of us graduated as a fashion designer (O Zvolanski) and the other one as an interior designer (Vitaliy Vorobey). Since then we have become partners in crime. So now we want to be part of those who create something to make the world a better place. And we are sure that our works can say more than we can in words. So follow us and our work.

A series of drawings turned carpets explore artists perception of the human body, acceptance of oneself and creative energy that pours freely once the balance is found. Sensitivity is translated in rapid brushstrokes that confidently run across the canvas exploring tenderness but rigidity, a search for balance and beauty in unexpected like a color pallet that becomes an independent composition. These collection is a glimpse at artists work process, thoughtfully focused on the medium of sketches that carry the movement of a thought and radiates energy or/and a feeling. A relationship with oneself is always a movement reflected at the surrounding space where objects shape it.
