As a Wave of Life,

SOPRO is an impulse of creation

that makes you progress,

undertake new gestures and

aspire to perfection. It urges

you to move forward,

look harder and do better!

At SOPRO we create functional sculptures,

objects with an emotional core that respond to a

practical use.

These are versatile pieces that, whilst functional,

inspire the senses and evoke aesthetic and

emotional experiences. SOPRO seeks value

through craftsmanship and the context in which

the objects are created. Each functional sculpture

is aimed at generating and transmiting the

emotions you desire for your space. We look

for new ways of understanding and using art,

producing unique pieces that, by your selection,

reflect you and enhance your life.

These are complementary forces that interact

creating a dynamic system in which the whole

is more significant than the sum of its parts. It is

balance between opposites that creates harmony,

beauty and the feeling of sublime.

Number three is the inspirat ion for SOPRO’s

f i rst funct ional sculpture - 3 3.

Three is a magical number. I t represents the

spir i tual and intelectual dimensions.

With three dots a plan is created and

real i ty begins to mater ial ize . I t has plenty

of meanings and has always had i ts part in

human history and development .

Three is also the number for unity, balance

and perfect ion.

3 3 has three forms/mater ials/scales that

can be combined in a var iety of ways to

acomodate the use you want i t to have.

The three minimal ist shapes, though

self-suff ic ient , have dif ferent apt i tudes

that combine to sat isfy indiv idual needs.

These dif ferent ways of containing are

complementary.

Structure | the pol ished metal structure

is an abstract ion. I t def ines the l imits and

transforms into a shelf, a suspended l ight

or a scenic piece.

Vase | the outs ide curve hides the inner

c ircle that creates the shape. Whether

rest ing on the plate or suspended from the

structure, i t br ings the object to l i fe .

Slat | i t is where the two worlds combine:

the stra ight l ine and the curve. I t is a f lat

wooden element that connects the marble

vase and the metal structure.
