Biography
Gabriela Bellon, an architect and designer, worked for renowned architectural firms worldwide until she found her place designing furniture and interiors. The native Argentinian graduated from the Faculty of Architecture at the University of Cordoba, Argentina, after which she gained experience both as an architect and furniture designer.
Her successful furniture collection has been presented at various international design fairs which led to her eventually founding her own furniture company, Gabriela Bellon Furniture Design, in 2004, bringing her products to the market in Europe and the US. She has lived and worked in Cordoba, Stuttgart, Munich, Sarajevo, La Paz and Ankara. Currently she resides and works in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
For her furniture collection she chose to highlight the materials used: solid wood and stainless steel. These high-class materials are essential to her timeless design. The wood is a sign of solidity and purity as well as sustainability, which is also of major importance to the designer. However, what characterizes her most is the combination of her striving for innovation, her professionalism, and her South American traits.
Moreover, what she enjoys as a designer is being part of every step of the creation and production of her own pieces. She participates in designing, prototyping, and the final production of each of her designs.
Furthermore, she finds it extremely rewarding to take on the challenges of working with production companies, designers and individuals with different professional backgrounds and enjoys the way everyone can bring their own to the table to create new products and designs.
