Ario

Airo-5G is a compact air conditioner designed for small spaces. Airo-5G combines three functions in one body: air conditioning fan, purifier and humidifier. The functions are selected by changing the placement of the unit, and all three can work together when the unit stands vertically. The hollow form is inspired by the karst caves of southwest China. A filter element removes fine airborne particles. The unit connects to the internet, so functions can be updated over time and less new hardware is needed. Airo-5G suits home, travel and office use.

Light Leaf

LightLeaf is a daylight redirecting louver system for homes with limited natural light. Conventional blind slats are replaced with adjustable light guiding blades that capture ambient daylight and reflect it deeper into the room. The blades combine a high reflectance upper surface with a diffusive lower finish to control glare. A lightweight aluminium frame with pivot hinges and position locks lets the unit be pushed outward when more daylight is needed. The system supports modular fabrication and non invasive installation on existing window frames.

Tramae Wallcovering Collection

Glamora Wallcovering Collection Building Components Tuesday, 10 November 2026

Tramae

Tramae is a wallcovering collection for interior surfaces. The design translates the sand casting technique of Italian artist Costantino Nivola into a three dimensional relief with a sandy texture. Tramae is produced on GlamOrigin, a matt material made of quartz powder layered on a non-woven fabric backing. Four free match patterns are offered in Pure White or Silk Grey. The patterns and the two tones can be combined to create calm or more dynamic surfaces. The hand worked effect is transferred to a ready to use material, so tactile depth is achieved on large areas.
