The brothers headed Estúdio Campana together. New York design gallery Friedman [Benda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dino-chair) hosts the collection comprised of [13 furniture pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yves-salomon) that are made using scrap aluminum. Friedman Benda explains, "Humberto has opened a new chapter of the studio's practice. He invites spiritual perspectives, recent material influences, and creative instinct while continuing to explore and bring new context to local craft traditions across Brazil." The capsule features items such as the Arachid chair from previous capsules along with new items such as the Jalapão chair and the Paisagem mirror.
