Miami, FL – December 4, 2017 – For more than 40 years, Artefacto has established itself as the most prominent international furnishings brand. Second generation CEO and President Paulo Bacchi continues his father’s vision to evolve the Brazilian company by celebrating 15 years of success in the United States. The company incorporates timeless design qualities distinguished by sophisticated northern Italian influences, the sensuality of southern France and the simplicity of Asian lines– all blended with the warm contemporary culture of Brazil. Through prudent family management, Artefacto has achieved dramatic expansion in a relatively short period of time. Its roots originate in Bacchi’s hometown of Sao Paulo, Brazil, where the company has 25 locations. In South Florida, Artefacto is found in Aventura, Coral Gables, and Doral. Bacchi continues to push the boundaries with plans to break ground on a sprawling Coral Gables showroom by Domo Architecture in 2018. Paulo and his wife Lais, celebrated an intimate evening for Artefacto’s Design House stars last month in his $12.5 million penthouse in the coveted Grove at Grand Bay, fully staged in the new anniversary collection. Notable guests included Pepe Calderin, Susy Acosta, Myrna Porcaro, Adriano Stancati, Javier Soto, Briggs Solomon, and Mirtha Arriaran. This week, Artefacto welcomes Brazilian artist Alejandro Estrada to Artefacto Home, Aventura for an exclusive Art Basel exhibition, blending design, architecture, and art into expansive panels of recycled wood in carved geometric shapes that “shift” from various viewpoints. In honor of Artefacto’s 15th year anniversary, World Red Eye highlights our favorite moments with the exquisite brand.

Artefacto has an amazing showroom with a great selection of furniture. It’s very accommodating to bring our clients to a one stop shop where you can find everything you need and multiple sections. Artefacto brings a contemporary style that’s elegant, beautiful and affordable with excellent quality and workmanship. I have worked with Artefacto for 15 years, the moment Artefacto opened their doors I became a client. I love their professional staff and warm atmosphere. Each time I go to Artefacto their staff makes me feel at home.

The evening was splendid, just like everything Artefacto does. We had wonderful hosts and breathtaking views in the penthouse. I’ve worked with Artefacto for 15 years since I began in Coconut Grove and I’m always impressed with the beauty of their creations.

I love working with Artefacto, I’ve done so for many years. Their white glove delivery is just as wonderful as their products.
