ForMobile: Designing National Identity

Brazilian firm Masisa, one of the global leaders in MDF and MDP manufacturing, presented its latest patterns during the furniture fair ForMóbile.

In line with the Olympic Games, the host country’s largest furniture and wood industries fair ForMobile, held in July, set its theme as “Brazilianness.”

Among the various expositions and product presentations, the fair is an opportunity to discover some of the best in Latin America—and it certainly celebrates national pride. Wood producer Masisa, for example, collaborated with Marcelo Rosenbaum of Studio Rosenbaum and Paul Biacchi of Fetiche Design to promote its new collection of coated MDF and MDP panels: the Essences collection including Brita, Cajueiro and Azulão.

The designers created three furniture lines for e-commerce store Oppa, aiming at developing unique wooden furniture for a young spirit audience. The pieces are suitable for compact, functional and practical spaces, adding lots of color.
