MAJLIS BODY BLOCKS TOTEM EDITION BY DAVINA ATALLAH AT WE DESIGN BEIRUT
At Villa Audi in Beirut, for the exhibition Totems of the Present and the Absent curated by Gatserelia Design, designer Davina Atallah unveils the new Majlis Body Blocks. Totems Edition — a stunning evolution of her modular, stackable floor cushions inspired by ancient Mesopotamian forms. Soft, sculptural, and inviting, these large-scale cushions echo the majlis, a traditional gathering space where generations meet and exchange ideas. Designed for play and connection, they invite users to build, stack, and reshape — reclaiming what was lost through erasure and reimagining identity through creativity. Crafted in water-repellent, stain-resistant fabrics and filled with shredded foam, each piece can be customized by size, color, and texture for both indoor and outdoor use. Majlis Body Blocks. Totems Edition blurs the line between design and ritual — turning memory, culture, and play into living forms.
TAKASHI MURAKAMI X LOUIS VUITTON: ARTYCAPUCINES SHINE AT ART BASEL PARIS
At Art Basel Paris, the collaboration between Takashi Murakami and Louis Vuitton took center stage with a dazzling new edition of the Artycapucines collection.
Presented at the Grand Palais, Murakami’s vision transformed the classic Capucines bag into a playful and sculptural piece — a true blend of art and luxury design. Tentacles, rainbow motifs, and jewel-like details celebrated the artist’s joyful universe and Vuitton’s craftsmanship. This project is a perfect example of how creativity can bridge worlds — from contemporary art to high fashion — inspiring new ways of seeing and living with design. Art becomes wearable, and imagination takes form.
LA DODICESIMA ALTALENA BY FRANCESCO ARENA
Installed on a hilltop in Capalbio Scalo, Tuscany, La dodicesima altalena (The Twelfth Swing) is a monumental circular structure — 15 meters wide — by Francesco Arena holding twelve bronze swings suspended by chains. One swing defies gravity, pointing skyward. On each seat is engraved a quote — from Dostoevsky, T.S. Eliot, Kerouac, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, and others. Eleven phrases affirm meaning, belief, or thought. The twelfth, on the inverted swing, questions them all. This sculptural installation invites reflection on truth, perception, and contradiction, where even the laws of physics bend to artistic inquiry.
MEMORY BOX BY PICKY PARENTS E KLARA SUMOVA
The Memory Box, designed by Picky Parents & Klára Šumová, is a poetic storage object created to preserve childhood treasures — from baby teeth and first drawings to love notes and photos. A modern-day reliquary, it offers a beautiful way for families to honor milestones and memories, often tucked away and forgotten. The box celebrates traditional Czech craftsmanship. It brings together the talents of illustrator Barbora Idesová, woodcarver Klára Paclíková, and carpenter Štěpán Holoubek. Photography by Michaela Karásek Čejková (Picky Parents) captures its timeless charm. Meant to be passed on to a child on a special day — like their 18th birthday — the Memory Box becomes a unique, intimate archive of growing up.
NYSA CERAMIC
We fall in love with creators who shape stories from clay — and NysaCeramic is one such dream. Each piece from Nysa feels like a moment suspended between earth and imagination. Handmade with care, inspired by nature and myth, their ceramics bring warmth, depth, and poetic presence into everyday interiors. From plates etched with symbolism to vessels that whisper of landscapes, NysaCeramic turns a table or a shelf into a canvas of soft, natural artistry. In a world of mass production, Nysa reminds us that beauty is made slowly, thoughtfully, with hands that listen to the clay.
BABY BEE BY TRUFFLE BEE
we’re always on the lookout for brands that speak the language of design, play, and childhood wonder. That’s why we fell in love with Truffle Bee — a brand where table culture meets bold creativity.

From bibs to placemats, everything is crafted with care, color, and imagination, turning mealtime into a playful design moment. Baby Bee isn’t just about functionality — it’s about including children in the beauty of everyday life, with style and softness that parents and kids will both adore. Truffle Bee makes the table a place of joy for every age.
A SHORT INTERVIEW WITH PAVLA TYLICHOVA
I AM...
Pavla Tylichova. I am an architect and a mother of two wonderful sons, thanks to whom I began to focus more on design during their early childhood (and thus the limited time I had for my architectural profession). More precisely: I began to design urban furniture, but also interior furniture and toys.
I DO...
in addition to the above, I am currently also interested in interior design, both new and and renovations of older buildings.
CHILDHOOD TO ME IS...
a beautiful memory for me of a time when nothing was impossible. Freedom, carefreeness and a world full of ideas and dreams about my future life.
IMAGINATION TO ME IS...
a joy for me and still a bit of an escape into my childhood.
MY FAVOURITE OBJECT IS...
I like collecting objects: minerals, statuettes, shells, fossils...I collect with my younger son:)

PAVLA TYLICHOVÁ
At unduetrestella, we love discovering designers who blend storytelling, functionality and a sense of place. One of these inspiring talents is Pavla Tylichová, a Czech architect and designer whose work spans from architecture to interior and product design, always guided by a deep respect for context, materials and time.
What we admire most in Pavla’s approach is her ability to create objects and spaces that are both poetic and practical. Her projects speak quietly but powerfully: whether she is designing a piece of children’s furniture or a public park, every detail feels intentional, essential, and emotionally resonant.
Pavla believes that good design should evolve naturally from its environment and from the lives of the people who use it. This philosophy shines through in her soft, minimal aesthetics and in her sustainable choices — values we at unduetrestella also share and promote.
Discover more about her beautiful world — and stay tuned, because we are sure her story will cross paths with ours again soon.

These figures evoke the soul of wood—free, joyful, and protective of their environment. Beyond their whimsical forms, the collection carries a powerful message: a critique of the senseless transport, felling, and consumption of wood beyond its local context.

Crafted from industrial gas pipes with a plywood seat and integrated LED lighting, TRIPUS transforms throughout the day: from a lookout spot by daylight to a softly lit reading space at night.
