About Campana Brothers Design
The Campana brothers — Fernando and Humberto — turned the chaos of São Paulo's streets into furniture. The Vermelha chair coils 500 yards of hand-braided red rope over a steel frame; the Favela armchair is nailed together from scrap fruit-market wood. Their signature is warm scarlet exuberance and tropical bricolage: a tribute to chaos, a portrait of Brazil.
This design system translates that raw, handmade density into the screen — a dark crimson ground, braided-rope reds, scrap-wood browns, and heavy display type that refuses to be quiet.
