- Art & Design
Ballé Studio is more than just a design brand; it’s a tribute to culture, craftsmanship, and the beauty of exploration. Inspired by an enchanting road trip from Portugal to Turkey, the furniture design brand created a collection that reflects the rich diversity of cultures its founders encountered along the way. Every piece is a masterpiece, telling its own story while pushing the boundaries of design.
The studio’s collection features pieces that are not only visually striking but also carry deep cultural significance. The Valentine Sideboard pays homage to the legendary Ettore Sottsass and the Memphis style. With vibrant veneers and a fiery red interior reminiscent of the classic Valentine typewriter, it radiates artistic flair. Luxurious black oak handles with gilded brass accents add sophistication, making this sideboard a perfect blend of function and artistry.
The Tyger Stool is another iconic creation, crafted from hand-carved walnut wood and upholstered in stunning jacquard velvet. This stool exudes strength and character while paying tribute to the brand’s bold and expressive design ethos. It’s a statement piece that enhances any space, reflecting the personality of its owner. The Pei Armchair is a sculptural masterpiece that transcends traditional furniture design. Upholstered in luxurious cotton velvet, its playful, organic shape transforms any room. More than just a chair, it’s an artistic focal point that elevates both the ambiance and comfort of any space.
With the Moosh Drinks Cabinet, Ballé Studio introduces timeless elegance into interiors. Featuring a hand-carved walnut base, gold-plated hinges, and refined striped marquetry, this cabinet combines practical storage with a luxurious appearance. It’s ideal for those seeking elegance and functionality in one striking piece.
The Mee Moh Console masterfully blends craftsmanship and luxury. Its Mime-inspired design, glossy handles, and distinctive white Tanganyika veneer radiate refinement. Bold black-stained ash wood details create a subtle contrast that elevates the design to an unparalleled level of sophistication.
Every piece tells a story of culture and craftsmanship
The Dobbeh Armchair is designed for ultimate comfort, featuring an advanced geometric fabric pattern and a sumptuous bouclé seat. Supported by meticulously crafted walnut wood legs, it delivers both elegance and stability. This armchair seamlessly adapts to modern and classic interiors, making it a timeless addition to any living space.
Ballé Studio offers more than furniture—it delivers an experience of refinement, comfort, and cultural exchange. Every piece pays tribute to the traditions encountered during the founders’ journey, designed to make a lasting statement in any space.
