Draga & Aurel

Draga & Aurel is a multidisciplinary studio in collectible and art, founded in Como in 2007. Draga Obradovic and Aurel K. Basedow are known for a distinctive language that combines a rigorous design method with an artistic approach to materials.

At Salone Raritas, within the exhibition Affinity in Light, Draga & Aurel present a new chapter in their research devoted to transparency, color, and the relationship with light. In collaboration with Salviati, the historic Murano glass furnace, glass emerges as a material for investigation and experimentation. Process, matter, and artisanal knowledge converge in an open dialogue. With the lamps Soffio and Crisalide, light becomes a generative presence and color turns into substance, revealing vibrant surfaces shaped by tension and continuous metamorphosis.

“With glass, we chose not to impose a form, but to listen to the material. Working in the furnace alongside master glassmakers means embracing the unexpected and turning it into a project. This is the approach that has always guided our research: pushing materials beyond their conventional use and letting them suggest new expressive possibilities.” Draga & Aurel
