ARA is a bathroom stool designed by Studiopepe for Inbani in 2026.
The ARA collection, designed by Studiopepe, draws inspiration from the water sources of antiquity. Its forms recall sculptural elements in marble and stone, whose architecture - sacred in character - places the primary element at center stage: water. In the monoblock, materiality is emphasized through the expressiv strength of weight and volumetric plasticity, as well as through the dialogue between textured and smooth surfaces.
ARA is enriched by the introduction of a new material: Bush-hammered Limestone, which brings solidity, balance, and an organic elegance. Wood also takes on a prominent role with the new Carved texture, adding warmth and depth. This intersection of contrasting surfaces creates a refined dialogue between different finishes and materials, enriching the overall composition and giving strength to the formal purity and classical reference that define ARA collection.
