Draga & Aurel

Est. 2007 Based in Como, Italy

Draga & Aurel is a multidisciplinary design studio and workshop focused on collectible design, art, and furniture. Informed by a background in art, fashion, and craftsmanship, the duo is known for their imaginative methods and reinventions of bespoke vintage pieces. Material and composition are a strong suit in creating unique pieces that blend the confines of art and design. They have also collaborated with notable brands, manufacturers, and fashion houses, while constantly adding original techniques to their oeuvre.

Helmed by Draga Obradovic and Aurel K. Basedow, the studio operates from its workshop in Como, Italy, where each piece is handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail. Combining techniques like resin casting, hand-painting, and material layering, Draga & Aurel’s collections showcase a unique interplay of texture, color, and form. Their works are celebrated for pushing boundaries, merging the organic with the industrial, and redefining the dialogue between art and utility.

“We let ourselves be guided by the passion for experimentation and we grasp the stimuli that our creative universe made of people, materials, shapes and colors offers us. In essence, we embrace the beauty of the unexpected, this is how our collections are born.”
