Based in Brianza, Hemo is a furniture company that combines a long family tradition with ongoing research into advanced design techniques.

How does Hemo combine the latest international design trends with the furniture tradition of Brianza?

When someone chooses one or more Hemo products, they can be sure they’re not simply getting something that’s trendy, but rather an item that could have existed anywhere in the world. It’s a piece influenced by the great masters and iconic global design styles. The originality lies in the reinterpretation of these global styles within the collection.

Hemo successfully blends international design trends with the furniture tradition of Brianza by taking an approach that values both innovation and local craftsmanship. The brand, rooted in Brianza—a region renowned for its excellence in furniture production—combines refined materials and modern techniques with a deep respect for artisanal traditions.

What are the distinctive characteristics of your products in terms of craftsmanship, design, and materials?

Hemo’s products stand out for several qualities that make them unique and highly appreciated. Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, reflecting the artisanal excellence of Brianza. The craftsmanship is entirely "Made in Italy," ensuring high standards of quality and durability. Hemo combines innovative shapes with timeless aesthetics, creating furniture that is both modern and classic. Ongoing research and the use of modern technologies allow us to develop products that meet contemporary needs while maintaining a distinctive style. High-quality materials are used, carefully selected for their beauty and uniqueness. For the new collection, designed by Studio Dainelli, we wanted to focus on the materiality and beauty of nature. This includes the use of rare woods, such as Palm wood, with which we created limited edition versions of our Portante table, as well as other special materials like solid Travertine or acid-treated metals.

What values define your style? What is your vision of contemporary Italian craftsmanship?

Hemo’s mission is to create design pieces that are contemporary and sophisticated, yet versatile and functional for everyday life. This balance between innovation and tradition is reflected in our products, which retain the warmth and spirit of handcrafted pieces while appealing to an international audience. With Hemo, we wanted to create a timeless collection featuring objects that speak to the artisans who made them, where the craft itself takes precedence over the design of the object. Simple, linear shapes blend with soft, generous volumes to create a varied yet harmonious mood, unified by essences, materials, and craftsmanship.
