the VISION

Aequo Materia is a French design brand created in 2022. The utterly recognisable products are inspired by brutalism and industrial architecture with modern takes. The designer originated their inspiration from industrial facilities and abandoned factories of Strasbourg, Eastern countries - brutalism emergence - and Berlin’s raw architecture. The designer wants to transform this architectural style into home decor objects. The use of sheer cold tones, chiefly raw materials mixed with industrial shapes reveals the pieces’ power and timelessness. Aequo Materia believes in the influence of environments and surroundings to showcase each piece’s inner beauty, finding the perfect industrial/purism balance, which is at the center of its design process.
