Sofia Venetucci
Sofia Venetucci is a designer based in São Paulo, Brazil. Her practice combines artisanal processes, material experimentation, and a sculptural approach to furniture and objects. With over six years of experience, she spent five years as part of the design team at the acclaimed Campana Studio, where she deepened her interest in intuitive making and hands-on development. In her independent studio, Sofia explores form through repetition, instinct, and the physicality of materials. She has assisted in summer workshops at Domaine de Boisbuchet, supporting participants as a workshop staff. Her work has been exhibited at Salone Satellite and Fuorisalone (Milan), Dutch Design Week, and featured in both national and international publications.
My design practice is rooted in material exploration. For me, materials are not secondary to form, they are central to meaning. A material doesn’t just support a design, it performs it. It speaks, carries memory, and often tells me what the object wants to become. In my process, the material often comes before the sketch. I observe everyday textures and discarded objects, especially those not traditionally used in furniture. I'm drawn to things that feel out of place. These choices are guided by texture, weight, flexibility, and emotional presence.
