Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @voluptestudio, whose work merges materiality and functional design through a Mediterranean sensibility, connecting craft and nature. Their practice is process-driven, aiming for objects to feel sensorial, raw, and alive, with an identity shaped as much by making as by form.At FORMA with Grutta, Volupte presents new circular and rectangular washbasins that shift a utilitarian object into domestic sculpture. Built from essential geometric archetypes, the collection explores purity of outline and architectural presence, designed to integrate into contemporary interiors where material expression and simplicity are key.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @martatorrentboix, a Catalan artist, designer, and maker based between Barcelona and London. They work primarily with metal, repurposing e-waste and discarded materials to explore the intersections of sustainability, craftsmanship, and technology through objects, furniture, and installations. Their work has been exhibited at the Design Museum, London, and Disseny Hub Barcelona.At FORMA with Grutta, Marta presents Fan Lamp S, a floor lamp built from salvaged materials sourced from a London scrapyard. A broken fan guard becomes the lamp’s defining structure, turning an industrial fragment into a new light fixture. The piece plays with light and shadow while keeping the history of the recovered material visible. #FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Grutta is taking part in FORMA with a curated selection of contemporary design and author pieces, with a focus on materiality, craftsmanship, and process. Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @ximi.dsgn, a designer creating furniture and objects rooted in the everyday life of Madrid. Ximi’s practice values the relationship between people and their environments, using emotional resonance and recognizable urban references as a foundation. The popular and the mundane become materials for design, turning the city into both subject and archive.At FORMA with Grutta, Ximi presents PARADA SOLICITADA and L2_01, two pieces that translate Madrid’s public transport into domestic objects. PARADA SOLICITADA is a seat inspired by the interiors of Madrid’s interurban buses, conceived as a tribute to the city. L2_01 is a floor lamp from TRANSBORDOS, a family of pieces derived from the routes and colors of the Madrid metro lines, bringing a graphic system into three-dimensional form through structure, line, and hue.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @jss.msgr and @repartostudio. Reparto, founded in 2019 by Margil Peña and Ana Viglione, develops character-driven projects that bring humor and unexpected themes into visual culture, with a commitment to positive impact. Jesús Meseguer is an architect based in Madrid whose work sits between design and research, focusing on environmental practices and new material ecologies across scales, from public space to objects and experimental work.At FORMA with Grutta, they present TUNING - Car Lamp, part of the broader TUNING Collection, a collaboration that reimagines found automotive elements as a furniture kit, inspired by objects that might appear in an outdoor after-party. With an emphasis on recycle, reuse, and reduce, the project treats tuning as both a cultural reference and an action of adjustment: previously used structures are reassembled into new configurations using scrapped fragments sourced from car workshops.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Grutta is taking part in FORMA with a curated selection of contemporary design and author pieces, with a focus on materiality, craftsmanship, and process. Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @isabel_._alonso, a Spanish designer and LAHP-funded PhD candidate at the Royal College of Art in London. Isabel approaches design as collaborative, research-led, and experimental, using it to investigate cultural and ecological questions. Narrative, material honesty, and sensitive composition are consistent through-lines in the work.At FORMA with Grutta, Isabel presents Italic candleholder, a floor-standing piece that reframes candlelight as a domestic ritual rather than a functional substitute for modern lighting. Built from three detachable stainless-steel elements, a heavy base, a standard threaded rod, and a hollow cylinder that cradles a tealight, the design makes the candle appear to almost disappear while keeping the flame clearly visible. The subtle sway created when lighting or extinguishing adds movement and attention, turning simple gestures into a reflective, sensory experience.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @guillermotrapiello, an artist-designer whose work takes a poetic approach, moving through collective imagination, pop culture references, and craft. Guillermo’s practice is committed to contemporary making and responsible production, resisting predictable, standard solutions in favor of objects with intention and character.At FORMA with Grutta, Guillermo presents Hilo lamp, a floor lamp conceived to feel almost weightless through both construction and material logic. The electrical cord becomes part of the structure, blurring the line between support and power supply. The piece culminates in an ultra-light shade that casts a warm, gentle glow, reinforcing a restrained presence and a sense of quiet suspension.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Grutta is taking part in FORMA with a curated selection of contemporary design and author pieces, with a focus on materiality, craftsmanship, and process. Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @elenarocabert & @mrtaochoa, both trained as architects, who completed their master’s theses at ETSAM (Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Madrid). Their collaborative practice moves across object design, spatial interventions, and scenography. Through experiments with material, construction techniques, and light, they create ethereal works that invite multiple readings, with a playful approach that often addresses gender and perception.At FORMA with Grutta, they present Bird lamp, a piece inspired by the interpretive logic of the Rorschach test, where abstract forms prompt viewers to project meaning. The lamp’s silhouette suggests wings and hybrid creatures, balancing fragility and intensity through contrast and composition. It is built from two joined pieces of lacquered wood, with a white linen shade that softens the light and reinforces the object’s quiet, atmospheric presence.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Grutta is taking part in FORMA with a curated selection of contemporary design and author pieces, with a focus on materiality, craftsmanship, and process. Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @carlotagallo_, a product designer based in Madrid. Carlota develops their work between teaching and practice, working as a design instructor while collaborating on product and interior design projects. With a background in the materials field, Carlota has also advised luxury-sector firms on the selection and use of raw materials.At FORMA with Grutta, Carlota presents 10+1 stool, a one-of-a-kind bench conceived as a speculative design artifact. Rather than aligning with the logic of mass production or competing with established modern icons, the project proposes another way for an object to circulate and create impact. Accompanied by a book, the work expands beyond the bench itself, using publication as a vehicle to disseminate its narrative, questions, and ideas.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

Grutta is taking part in FORMA with a curated selection of contemporary design and author pieces, with a focus on materiality, craftsmanship, and process. Come meet us at stand B3 and discover the pieces in person from March 5–8 at Matadero Madrid.Featuring @andreamorenorts, whose practice spans small and large-scale objects, ceramics, and material research. Andrea’s work draws from traditional craft knowledge while developing a personal visual language. In 2021, Andrea joined La Cuarta Piel, a collective of art and architecture, and opened a ceramics workshop in Alicante with Loli Moloni. Recent work focuses on local materials and the stories they carry, from testing the ground beneath the city to working with wild clays that speak to territorial tensions.At FORMA with Grutta, Andrea presents Ceremony Fountain and Jar 0001, two pieces designed around shared rituals of water and collective use. Ceremony Fountain brings together a six-spouted fountain, six glasses, and a serving bottle, combining playful deception-pottery references with a functional, celebratory spirit. Jar 0001 is conceived as a vessel for carrying, storing, and sharing water, echoing the tradition of household water jars and the symbolism of gifting them for new homes, updating these gestures as a contemporary collective ritual.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective

A design graduate from Elisava, Ana’s path has taken her from creative direction in Berlin to interior design work in Barcelona.At FORMA with Grutta, Ana presents Silver Moon, a work that fragments lunar phases to hold magnitude and weightlessness in tension, culminating in a silver moon suspended in its own orbit. Drawing on the moon’s poetic aura of mystery and serenity, it reads as a shifting miracle and continues a more immaterial, contemplative inquiry into form.#FORMA #GruttaCollective #MadridDesignFestival by @gruttacollective
