A Focus on Sustainability and Premium Quality
At Arbore, every piece of furniture we create is are flection of our core values. We believe that premium quality and sustainability should go hand in hand. This belief was the driving force behind our presentation at ICFF, where we highlighted our dedication to using sustainable, natural materials in all our designs. From responsibly sourced solid oak to luxurious marble, each material is chosen with care, ensuring that our furniture not only stands the test of time but also respects the environment.
Introducing the I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR Collection
The centerpiece of our ICFF showcase was the I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR collection, developed in collaboration with the talented designer Dean Connell. This collection is more than just a range of furniture; it is a statement of our commitment to the circular economy and sustainable design.
Circular Design at Its Core
The I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR collection is crafted with sustainability at its core. Each piece in the collection is designed to minimize waste, with interchangeable components that can be easily repaired,reused, or re-manufactured. This approach not only extends the life of the furniture but also reduces the need for new resources, aligning perfectly with our capsule approach—where products give back more than they take over time.
Celebrating Natural Materials
A key highlight of the I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR collection is the use of natural materials. For instance, the IAM_Credenza and IAM_CredenzaMarble integrate luxurious marble tops and solid oak in their design,showcasing the beauty and durability of these natural elements. Available in a variety of finishes such as Natural, Dark, Black, and Honey, along with marble options like White Carrara and Nero Marquina, these pieces are as versatile as they are elegant. Each element is meticulously crafted to ensure that it not only serves its functional purpose but also enhances the beauty of the space it occupies.
The Stunning Cannoli Collection
In addition to the I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR collection, we were thrilled to showcase the beautiful Cannoli Collection, developed in collaboration with Studio Claud Christian. This collection represents a unique blend of Romania’s rich decorative heritage and the brutalist intensity seen in the country’s architecture.
A Fusion of Tradition and Modernity
The Cannoli Collection is a testament to how traditional craftsmanship can be modernized and adapted to contemporary design aesthetics.The collection features core wooden elements that highlight materiality and form, challenging traditional furniture construction. The Cannoli Sofa, a stand out piece, wraps cushions in an exposed, experimental bent oak structure—an innovative use of Arbore’s signature oak. This approach not only celebrates the beauty of the wood but also pushes the boundaries of design, offering a fresh perspective on luxury and comfort.
A Modern Twist on Traditional Craftsmanship
One of the defining features of Arbore’s design philosophy is our ability to draw inspiration from traditional Romanian folklore and give it a modern twist. This was evident in both the I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR and Cannoli collections presented at ICFF, where we seamlessly blended old-world charm with contemporary design elements. The result is furniture that is not only functional but also rich in cultural significance and aesthetic appeal.
The Response at ICFF
The response to our debut at ICFF was overwhelmingly positive. Visitors to our booth were captivated by the high-quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and sustainable practices that define our brand. The I AM DESIGNED CIRCULAR collection received significant attention for its innovative approach to circular design, while the Cannoli Collection was praised for its bold, yet refined aesthetic that bridges tradition and modernity.
Looking Ahead

Our commitment to sustainability, premium quality, and innovative design remains stronger than ever.
