Pedrita

Pedrita is Rita João and Pedro Ferreira. Both are Design graduates from the Architecture Faculty of Lisbon's Technical University, having also studied at TU Delft (in Rita's case) and Politecnico di Milano (Pedro). They joined FABRICA in September 2002, and took charge of the 3D Design Department in 2004. Returning to Lisbon the following year, they founded the Pedrita studio and have since been developing a myriad of projects in cooperation with creative organizations, individuals and clients from all over the world, including TAP Portugal, Ordem dos Arquitectos, Camper, EXD, Movélpartes/Sonae Indústria, Central de Cervejas/Água de Luso and Amop. Inspired by Portuguese traditional forms and techniques, Pedrita's work casts an inquisitive look at material culture - past and present - in projects that are candid and quietly eloquent.
