Area____Luce is a design practice rooted in material research and emotional resonance. The studio explores the subtle ways in which spatial volumes and environments influence our state of being. Embracing material experimentation and pushing beyond traditional boundaries, the studio explores new ways of shaping experience through design.

During 3daysofdesign, Area____Luce unveils its debut, a study of how the space around us shape the way we move, think, and feel. Rooted in the belief that environment informs behavior, the collection explores volume as both function and emotion. At the core of the presentation is a unique approach to materiality, challenging conventional uses and embracing the tension between industrial process and sculptural presence. Joining the exhibition is Arnoglass, a glassware brand from Korea, whose explorations in glass echo light, tension, and transformation.
