Studio Lucas Caramés

Studio Lucas Caramés is the Brasília practice of Lucas Fialho Caramés, an architect trained at the Universidade Católica de Brasília who moved from buildings to authorial furniture. From a workshop in Águas Claras the studio develops pieces in small series, working with carpenters, weavers and metalworkers rather than an industrial line, and treats each object as a numbered edition with a story attached.

The Poty armchair, named after the river of the Parnaíba delta, wraps a solid wood frame in carnauba straw woven by artisans of the Brazilian northeast and won Furniture Design of the Year at the 2024 SIT Award. Around it the studio builds collections that translate the cerrado, the coast and his northeastern roots into contemporary seating, tables and objects, sold through galleries and design retailers in Brazil and abroad.
