Marta Manente

For over 20 years, we have been based in Bento Gonçalves, in the Serra Gaúcha region—one of Brazil’s leading furniture hubs, where the vineyard landscapes inspire creativity and craftsmanship. Specializing in high-end furniture for both indoor and outdoor spaces, our work blends refined aesthetics with exceptional quality.

Since 2016, we have exhibited consecutively at prestigious international fairs such as Salone del Mobile and Fuorisalone in Milan, as well as ICFF in New York. Our collections have also been featured at design weeks in São Paulo, Milan, Rome, Paris, Stockholm, London, Barcelona, and Berlin. Along this journey, we have received multiple design awards in Brazil and abroad, consolidating our presence in the contemporary and avant-garde authorial design segment.

At the heart of our creations is designer Marta Manente, of Italian descent, who carries forward a century-old family tradition. Her great-grandparents migrated to Brazil’s Serra Gaúcha, and it was alongside her father, a skilled cabinetmaker, that she developed her passion for the art of woodworking. With over two decades of experience in contemporary furniture design, Marta is the founder and creative director of Studio Marta Manente Design, collaborating with leading brands in Brazil and internationally to produce cutting-edge furniture collections.

Holding a degree in Interior Decoration, a diploma in Furniture Production Technology, and a postgraduate degree in Product Design with an emphasis on furniture, Marta also served as a professor in international programs, teaching in the Specialization Course in Design jointly offered by universities in Pordenone, Italy, and Caxias do Sul, Brazil. Her work is defined by a fusion of heritage, innovation, and a vision that transcends trends, creating pieces that are timeless yet forward-thinking.
