Carnevale Studio's first interiors project is Faust - a traditional Bavarian Beer Hall or ‘Hofbräuhaus’ located in the hip new Dean Hotel in Providence, Rhode Island. The Studio was commissioned to design and manufacture the furniture, bar and the molding behind the bar. Simple benches and tables struck through with lustrous brass go well with large Steins of Weissbier, hunks of Würstl and men in Lederhosen.

Beauty born of raw simplicity.

Brutiful is a starkly handsome set of clay tables, which draw inspiration from the Brutalist architecture that dominates London's Southbank, where Carnevale Studio was based for a time.

Ceramics have long been associated with delicate, decorative tableware. Less glamorous, but no less interesting, are its industrial and architectural applications: clay bricks, pipes and electrical resistors. 

Made in England by Naylor Industries, a fourth generation family company still digging clay out of the same seam as they ever were.

Exhibited at the Salone del Mobile in 2012.

Puffy is voluminously upholstered collection of furniture, which takes the much-loved puffy jacket as its inspiration.

Neon silks, satins and synthetics were filled with enough down and foam to make the pieces look and feel somehow inflated.

They are almost entirely upholstered, absorbed and enveloped. Only the dining chair’s structure is still just visible, and the fabric appears to be still expanding.
