El Pasillo is a furniture design and
production company from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Since
1995 we design, develop and produce steel and concrete
furniture.
Natured-inspired style furniture, our concrete designs
are inspired by aborigine themes and our european
cultural roots, but from "here and now",
with a contemporary and not only folkloric aesthetics.
One of our objectives is the investigation of unusual
furniture materials, as our concrete, steel plate,
expanded metal or raw-hide leather furniture.
We believe that design process should be an exploration
into the possibilities of a material and form; and
also into possibilities of being another things, as
metamorphose itself.
Example: "concrete is a so hard, cold and
rough material"… that nevertheless
it can be warm, smooth, silky…
Concrete is a little unpredictable: no two pieces
are exactly alike. But we like to work on that singularity
that gives them an unique character.
