ATELIER BODEGA
IS A RETAIL EXPERIENCE PRESENTING SEASONAL COLLECTIONS OF ANTIQUES ALONGSIDE CUSTOM CAPSULES WHERE THE WORK OF DESIGNERS AND FABRICATORS IN THE HOME AND HOSPITALITY SECTORS IS INCUBATED AND AMPLIFIED.
A place where ideas are tested, materials studied, and new forms quietly developed. It functions as both a workshop and thinking space, where hands-on prototyping and archival exploration ensure every detail resonates with a larger ethos of preservation.
MATERIALS RESEARCH
Rooted in deep historical inquiry and tactile exploration, our process favors textures, finishes, and construction methods that honor the past while informing a refined, present-day expression.
INTENTIONAL SOURCING
We prioritize thoughtful reclamation and intuitive discovery in our sourcing journey, favoring aged, timeworn elements that carry the spirit and history of place.
DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT
Iterative and intuitive, we are guided by site-responsive research, material resonance, and a reductive approach that allows the essential character of a space or an object to emerge.
DF BODEGA LIGHT
Created as part of the renovation of Maison Bodega, the DF BODEGA LIGHT intertwines Dust + Form’s signature hand-sanded curves and the ephemeral nature of the 100-year old space it was designed to inhabit. Its material qualities are enhanced by observation, the phenomenology of light moving across its surface - an exploration of time being made visible.
Slip cast ceramic form, UL listed light fixture with (adjustable) brass drop and canopy.
Artist edition of 10. Made to order.
UNDA FORM
In Latin, the word “unda” is used to describe water, specifically ripples, waves or a body of flowing water. Water’s ever changing quality parallels that of the human spirit. Calm and fierce, flowing and stagnant. In this way, the Unda Form resonates motion, encouraging a constant wave to undulate within.
