My name is Gabri. I am a Milan-born high-end furniture designer based in Barcelona, creating couture upholstery, case goods, and lighting for North America's most distinguished furnishing houses.
Before founding my studio in 2020, I spent six years as a Donghia designer in New York City, where I created some of the brand's most iconic pieces — the Curve Sofa, Riverside Sectional, Egos Chair. Today you can find my work at Theodore Alexander, Kravet, and Donghia with collections debuting regularly at High Point Market and featured in Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, House Beautiful, and design publications across Europe and the US.
I learned my trade from master craftsmen in Italy and the United States, observing how they build joinery, finish surfaces, and solve structural challenges. This knowledge informs every piece, from first sketch to showroom floor.
My aesthetic lives at the intersection of sculptural volumes and sartorial details — tailored touches that remind of fine menswear. I regard furniture as vessels for comfort and delight, imagination talismans with the power to evoke feeling and spark transformation. There's meaning in objects, and the right piece changes how you inhabit a room.
I design for how people will live, not just how they live now. Every collection I design begins as an inquiry into the future of the home.
