Mix and Match Seat by João Faria Mix and match is an original collection of wooden benches designed mostly for hotels, entrances and commercial buildings. Fun, fresh and edgy could be some of the words to describe these objects that make people smile every time they look and use them. There are three sizes available, six different chairs to choose from and a small table to use with a laptop. In option, each bench can house usb sockets for charging phones and tablets. But the main goal is their endless customization options, almost unlimited, that makes each piece a unique object. Build your own!

Lazy Day Collection Seating by João Faria Joao Faria drew the Lazy Day Collection in 2014, but he only launched it in 2020. The armchairs and sofas' designs are original, edgy and sophisticated, with two slightly different versions: Classic and Modern. The most remarkable feature is the rounded back, made with carefully book matched wood veneers. In November 2020, Interior Design Magazine featured this sofa as a statement seat.
