What happens when Vista Alegre collaborates with designer Damian O’Sullivan and Italian brand Giobagnara? Makura is what happens. Vista Alegre is presenting Makura, a set of two trays designed by British designer Damian O’Sullivan, with whom the brand has collaborated on previous projects. The collection explores a refined dialogue between the serenity of porcelain and the warmth and tactile richness of leather, brought to life through the exceptional craftsmanship of prestigious Italian brand Giobagnara.
Defined by geometric forms and distinct dimensions, the two trays have been conceived as elegant resting places for everyday objects, balancing functionality with a discreet and timeless aesthetic. At the centre of each piece, leather introduces a sensory dimension that both contrasts with and complements the porcelain, creating a harmonious composition in soft, warm tones.
The name Makura — the Japanese word for ‘pillow’ — perfectly evokes this sense of comfort and softness, referring to the leather surface at the heart of each tray. The result is a collection in which materials of contrasting natures come together in perfect harmony, reflecting the attention to detail and contemporary design language that define Damian O’Sullivan’s work.
