Boca do lobo - Press Kit English

WHERE IT ALL BEGINS Soho Sideboard was presented for the first time in 2005, in London. It was a huge success! Since then, the combination of tradition, quality and contemporary design make Boca do Lobo a special brand, setting an example of skill and mastery of the craft, where each design piece is treated as a real work of art.

CULTURAL PIECES Boca do Lobo furniture is an exclusive emotional experience, a sense of belonging and a state of mind. We strive to encourage sensational experiences by creating beautiful pieces, which are passionately inspired and handcrafted in Portugal by a staff that loves what they do. Our designers possess an undeniable talent for composing pieces which stir emotion in their admirers. No detail or element is overlooked as we offer the best at the frontier between design and art. Each piece will bring you on a journey to sources of pleasure you may have forgotten, and take you to places you have never been before; a journey to Boca do Lobo world, a world of emotions.

ARTS & CRAFTS With the support of twenty-five talented artisans from the North of Portugal, the crafts- men have always drawn inspiration from its roots, its craftsmanship and its heritage to transmute tradition into creation. Boca do Lobo transmits its unique skill through technical innovations and stylistic, daring and exceptional partnerships with elite artisans (glasscutters, engravers, goldsmiths) to transcend its excellence, becoming a major international luxury label.

BOCA DO LOBO TEAM Emotion is the key figure of our daily life. Boca do Lobo Team has been working to share the best Portugal has to offer: the knowledge of its people who design and create furni- ture art, the tradition of working with the noble material of wood, and the artisans and joiners who create the pieces with their years of wisdom and experience and their love and dedication to the art that they perform.

THE DESIGNER Despite Marco’s relative youth, he has a keen eye for design and an amazing talent for designing some of the most unusual, high quality furniture we have seen for some time. He loves to investigate the notions of perspective and distortion of form through his sculptural furniture pieces.
