PROJECT 213A

For their upcoming show at Alcova during Milan Design Week, April 17-23, the design house is realising new objects that together with their existing work will inhabit their space, Room V2 (La Viletta Building), to create a sense of comfort by encouraging visitors to interact with the objects and trigger their imagination. “We want the guest to be able to move freely around the space, creating an inviting exhibition, allowing people to sit rather than just browse,” the designers point out. To mark this milestone for Project 213A, the studio experimented with handmade ceramics and collaborated with local artisans in Portugal to realize their line of table lamps; a completely novel avenue for the studio and launching on the show’s opening.

Project 213A is a European design house founded in 2020 as an idea by four friends linked by a common design philosophy. The brand’s goal is to create modern as well as unique furniture and home accessories that are timeless with a commitment to work towards a more sustainable future. The name of the brand, Project 213A, refers to a London based address where all four founders each have lived in—at different times throughout their studies.
