The brothers Fernando and Humberto Campana were partners since 1983, being recognized worldwide for their work in design. Their art, which was previously strictly in furniture, now extends beyond the limits of multidisciplinarity and establishes design as a path for telling stories, uniting architecture, fashion, scenography and landscape architecture. Through their studio, Estúdio Campana, the brothers have pushed the envelope in terms of the resignification, recovery and reuse of materials, proposing simple and creative solutions, while recovering manual practice. The collective popular mindset of Brazil, with its colors and shapes, is translated into dramatic pieces full of movement and meaning, promoting the art of design as a tool for the exchange of knowledge, transformation and social inclusion. Humberto Campana has led the works with Campana Studio and Foundation since 2022.The brothers Fernando and Humberto Campana were partners since 1983, being recognized worldwide for their work in design.

Através do Estúdio Campana, a dupla vem quebrando barreiras na ressignificação, recuperação e reutilização dos materiais, propondo soluções simples e criativas, bem como resgatando o fazer manual através da tecnologia de ponta e da sustentabilidade. O imaginário coletivo popular do Brasil, com suas cores e formas, é resgatado em peças dramáticas, caóticas e cheias de movimento e significado, promovendo a arte do design como um instrumento de intercâmbio de conhecimentos, transformação e inclusão social.
