DAM – Present at the “Open House” in Lisbon
Until December 18, DAM is part of CASA ABERTA, an exhibition promoted by Santo Infante, in Príncipe Real in Lisbon, which brings together more than 50 Portuguese brands. After the success of the first edition, which had about 2 thousand visitors, Santo Infante challenges us again to discover a house fully decorated with national brands. There are two two bedroom flats to visit, inspire, buy or learn, where you can get to know our recent VARINA table up close and also the DINA and ALICE chairs, the PIPO stool, the CORTINA lamp, the BELA mirror, the GUMELO hangers and the NEL bedside table.

Description: Cortina is a lamp that plays with light like a delicate curtain. The shape is moulded from a block of cork evoking a levitating piece of earth. The metal sheet with its reflective surfaces forms a perfect contrast to the rustic appearance of the cork. Thus, the Curtain enhances the light, the earth and nature, transposing the outdoor garden into the interiors.

Description: NEL explores the gender issue and has a human and humorous character. The lampshade represents the male straw hat, typical of the Portuguese region of Baixo Minho. The humorous intention is due to the fact that MARIA (the other bedside table) is very talkative and, therefore, NEL is astonished to hear her. The drawers have illustrations of the character’s belongings. NEL is suitable for children, young people and adults.
Materials: Oak veneer, solid ash, hand-stitched straw braid, 8 Watt E14 Led bulb and illustrated wallpaper inside the drawers.

Description: Unafraid of the passage of time, Alice is a simple and elegant chair. The two back legs are gossiping, they are turned in themselves so they can talk.
