Celebrating 10 years of iconic design
Blending Brazilian cultural influences with contemporary design, the Painho Collection by Tidelli—designed in collaboration (in 2014) with renowned Brazilian designer Marcelo Rosenbaum and Fetiche Design—made its debut. Ten years later, this collection remains one of the most iconic in the world of outdoor furniture, symbolizing the fusion of tradition, artistry, and modern craftsmanship.
Inspired by the aesthetics of the tropical Bahia region, and the spiritual symbolism of Umbanda’s thrones, the Painho Collection offers a vivid reflection of Brazil’s rich cultural heritage. The collection’s distinctive fretwork patterns and hand-wrapped nautical ropes create a beautiful interplay between texture and structure, offering visual appeal and functional design. The open, airy backrests allow for visibility while maintaining the collection’s unique, intricate detailing.
Rosenbaum, known for infusing his designs with personal and cultural significance, sees furniture not just as functional objects but as pieces that carry stories and memories. In his partnership with Fetiche Design, led by Carolina Armellini and Paulo Biacchi, the goal was to craft pieces that went beyond mere utility, embedding Brazilian culture into every curve and knot. Together, they created furniture that embodies a narrative, not just for those who own it, but also for the culture it represents.
The Painho Collection includes a variety of pieces, from chairs and swings to side tables, each customizable with over 60 rope colors. This customization allows for endless possibilities, enabling owners to create personalized combinations that speak to their unique tastes. Whether it’s a single piece or a mix of colors within one design, the Painho Collection offers versatility and a whimsical touch to any space.
Today, the Painho Collection boasts eight different typologies, from lounge chairs to swinging seats, each representing a seamless marriage of industrial precision and handcrafted artistry. It stands as a testament to Tidelli’s ability to blend cutting-edge design with traditional craftsmanship, creating pieces that are as much works of art as they are functional furniture.
Marcelo Rosenbaum’s ability to connect design with cultural roots, combined with the creativity of Fetiche Design, has resulted in a collection that continues to captivate and inspire. The Painho Collection is now a fixture in some of Tidelli’s most stunning projects and homes around the world. It is a reminder that great design can be timeless, meaningful, and ever-evolving. As it celebrates 10 years, the collection is not just a milestone in Tidelli’s history—it’s a celebration of Brazilian culture, craftsmanship, and design.
