Art in Furniture: A Look at Tidelli’s Creations
Art in furniture goes beyond functionality, transforming utilitarian pieces into aesthetic expressions that reflect culture, history, and innovation.
In Brazil, this intersection between art and furniture is exemplified by brands that value original design and local craftsmanship—such as Tidelli.
The Influence of Art on Furniture Design
Throughout history, many artistic movements have shaped furniture design.
Art Deco, for example, introduced geometric forms and luxurious materials, resulting in glamorous, modern pieces.
Modernism, on the other hand, emphasized function and clean aesthetics, incorporating new materials such as tubular steel and plastic.
These artistic influences continue to inspire contemporary design, leading to furniture that is truly a form of art.
Tidelli’s Commitment to Art and Craftsmanship
Tidelli’s first factory was founded in Porto Alegre, in southern Brazil, in 1989.
The brand stands out for honoring local craftsmanship, collaborating with artisans from various Brazilian regions. These partnerships result in unique pieces with handcrafted details that highlight the artisans' skill.
Tidelli has participated in the "Design Brazil + Industry" showcase at Milan Design Week since 2023, promoting Brazilian design internationally. Their debut included handcrafted pieces like the Gamboa chair and the Carmel armchair. In 2025, they returned with new releases such as the Serelepe armchair, reinforcing their commitment to original, sustainable, and artisanal design.
