About Us
Hello. We are Gabi Neves and Alex Hell. We are Studioneves. A marriage of Brazilian design and German rigor – “uma casa Portuguesa, com certeza”! And when we refer to marriage, it is not a figure of speech. We have in fact been married for over ten years, meaning there is a lot of love involved in the production of every dish, bowl, mug, glass, and tray. Gabi models the pieces and Alex makes the glaze. Translated for the gourmands like us: one makes the pasta, the other makes the sauce.
But you must be asking yourself: isn’t it complicated to live and work together? Come on! The difficult part is dealing with our level of demand when it comes to our ceramics. The marriage we take care of in our free time… Returning to ceramics, our passion for this art arose from our love of gastronomy. We have always enjoyed cooking and gathering our friends to taste new dishes around the kitchen table. All of this led to the beginning of Studioneves. A society created and managed equally by a woman and a man.
Our goal is to innovate constantly. And we cannot be irresponsible, as people eat and drink out of our ceramics. That is why we are so concerned with the composition of the raw materials, so that they are not hazardous to your health. For that reason, we have decided to develop our own glaze.
In addition to being made with rainwater, some of our pieces are baked in a 100% renewable energy oven, thus generating exclusive and environmentally responsible pieces.
