An influential editorial platform celebrating contemporary design, architecture, and lifestyle culture.
Curated by Wallpaper* magazine, the Wallpaper* Design Awards highlight projects and creatives redefining the visual language of contemporary living.
The awards focus on innovation, material research, craftsmanship, and cultural relevance across design disciplines.
Developed by alumnus Gustavo Martini, “The Grove” won the Wallpaper* Design Award for “Best Squaring Up”.
Inspired by the relationship between urban structures and natural landscapes, the furniture collection combines rigid geometric metal grids with warm cork surfaces.
Through the contrast between density and lightness, the project creates a dialogue between architecture and organic growth, reflecting on balance within contemporary living environments.
