Sarpa Low Table

GARCÉ & DIMOFSKI for Æquo.

Based in Lisbon, Garcé & Dimofski explores contemporary design in its entirety. Both designers, interior architects, and collectors of contemporary and antique pieces, Clio and Olivier take pleasure in expertly assembling joyful, generous, and intriguing furniture. Settling in Portugal, the duo surrounds themselves with exceptional craftsmanship, which they explore throughout their collections. In 2023, Æquo invites them to take part in the Indian artisanal adventure that the gallery initiated two years ago. In their collection imagined for Æquo, they incorporate animals and chimeras into their furniture, inspired by Indian decorative arts rich in symbols and beliefs. Each piece creates an opportunity for a local technique to express itself. Thus, the Sarpá coffee table, made of aluminum poured into sand, creates a ripple effect like liquid scales, culminating in a leg transforming into a serpent with eyes set with green onyx. The snake, a symbol of transformation and wisdom, holds profound significance within the confines of a home. Across civilizations, it stands as an emblem of renewal and regeneration. Shedding its skin, the snake signifies the eternal cycle of rebirth, its sinuous form whispering of mysteries untold, inviting seekers to delve into the depths of their own consciousness.
