Happy New Year! 🎠 Art goes for a ride!

Gufram teamed up with Keith Haring and the legendary Luna Luna park to bring pure artistic joy into the home.

Born from the world’s first artist-designed amusement park, these iconic carousel figures leap from fairground fantasy to sculptural reality. Haring’s unmistakable characters — bold, dancing, alive — are reimagined by Gufram in full life-size form, handcrafted in soft polyurethane and finished with vibrant Guflac® paint.

All pieces are now available for pre-order in our shop. Step right up — this is one ride you don’t want to miss.

In 1987, Luna Luna landed in Hamburg, Germany: the world’s first art amusement park with rides, games, and attractions by visionaries like Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Roy Lichtenstein, Salvador Dalí, David Hockney, Kenny Scharf, and Sonia Delaunay.
⁠
Keith Haring designed a carousel that transformed the unmistakable marks he used to “graffiti” the New York subway into three-dimensional forms bursting with color.⁠ In his version of the carousel archetype, anthropomorphic and zoomorphic figures amplified their dynamism by the rotating motion of the machine, creating a feast of strong colors and profiles. Instead of white horses, one could go around sitting on sculptures whose form did not suggest a clear approach to use, but, as the photographs tell, left full freedom of interpretation.

Other artists included André Heller, Joseph Beuys, Arik Brauer, Manfred Deix, Rebecca Horn, Daniel Spoerri, Jim Whiting, and Philip Glass. The park was the brainchild of Austrian artist André Heller and included rides, games, and attractions designed by these and other visionaries.

Postmodern geometry for the dinner table — a new old stock set of four napkin rings designed by Nathalie du Pasquier for the Danish-Swiss brand Bodum, in 1990.
Made in the EEC (Europe) from chrome-plated brass, each ring features a unique sculptural shape. The perfect fusion of function and Memphis-era playfulness on your dinner table.
A rare find for design collectors and lovers of Du Pasquier's bold forms and mirrored surfaces!

Monday inspo with the Ettore Sottsass exhibition at Studio Casoli / on Filicudi Island, June - July 2025.
Filicudi was Sottsass's sanctuary in the 1980s — his summer refuge with his partner Barbara Radice. The island's elemental simplicity and timeless horizon shaped his contemplative approach to design, form, and narrative.

Originally conceived as a Christmas gift for Donna magazine in 1985, the Dorian and Ionian mirrors by Michele De Lucchi are icons of the Memphis design movement.
With their playful geometry, bold colors, and postmodern references to classical forms, these sculptural pieces are more than just mirrors — they're interactive works of art. Each one is handcrafted from lacquered wood and features a rotating mirror on a hinge, blending functional movement with minimalist design.
