The Animals Collection by Henrique Steyer celebrates the Brazilian architect's love for the animal kingdom. This contemporary collection of home furnishings is moulded to resemble animals that include jaguars, alligators and jungle-dwelling apes.
The collection of wood-constructed tables features a series of durable surfaces that are held up by decorative and sculptural framing, made to mimic wild animal forms.
Paying tribute to Brazilian art and architecture, the Animals Collection by Henrique Steyer embraces contemporary design lines and bright color hues that are often synonymous with the South American nation's cultural associations. The designer's diverse home decor pieces can double as stools or seating and come in a variety of wood types and finishes that range from high gloss to matte lacquer.
