We come from different disciplines. Maria and Ivailo worked as set and costume designers in film and theatre productions, while Peter is a ceramicist. In the context of Punkt, Maria specialises in welding and carving, Ivailo and Peter in assembling and structures.

A grinder, a circular saw, welding machines, chisels and planers. The workshop has five working tables and we move around a lot. Ivailo inherited tools from his grandfather, who was the first to teach him how to use them and make his own toys.

Each project has its own specifics and challenges, but most often we begin with the existing material; the idea comes afterwards. Usually, after disassembly, we begin to play with combinations of different elements and reformat functionality and aesthetics.

In these years of over-consumerism, we bring new life to discarded furniture and prove that reusing it brings poetry and practical meaning. We try to preserve and honour the spirit and sense of time of the objects and offer them a dignified chance of continued existence.
