Maison&Objet Paris 2026: ELEMENT&CO unveils Gemmes Garden, a capsule collection of sculptural furniture shaped by Nature

Could a gemstone shape the way we experience furniture? Based in Madrid, ELEMENT&CO explore this question by transforming natural minerals into tangible, functional works of art. Specialising in bespoke furniture and personalised interior solutions, the studio creates entirely handcrafted pieces from noble, responsibly sourced materials. Its philosophy goes beyond trends, focusing instead on timeless design, material integrity and a deep respect for craftsmanship.

Led by Bryan Ou-Yang and Sasha Sanchez, ELEMENT&CO approaches furniture as an intersection of art, craft and sustainable luxury. Each project unfolds as a unique narrative in which stone, metal and wood express their inherent character, inviting a slower, more contemplative engagement with design. At Maison&Objet Paris 2026, the studio presents Gemmes Garden, a capsule collection of collectible furniture that translates the raw beauty of gemstones into sculptural objects for contemporary interiors.

GEMMES GARDEN Collection: mineral matter as functional design

GEMMES GARDEN is born from a fascination with the intrinsic beauty of natural minerals and the structured elegance of French gardens. The collection reinterprets gemstones as sculptural yet functional forms, where material, light and proportion are harmoniously balanced. Each piece reflects the dialogue between human intervention and nature’s perfection, transforming raw mineral matter into enduring, functional objects of design.

Comprising five distinctive pieces — KIARA, NIKO, GRONDA, OCRUB, and DUOPHILIA —the collection offers varied spatial experiences and emotional expressions. While the stones’ natural qualities provide depth, texture and individuality, the designs introduce a refined contemporary language that pairs mineral solidity with soft fabrics and hand-finished surfaces. Customisation options, from fabric selection to project-specific adaptations, ensure that every commission is a unique creation.

Blurring the boundary between furniture and sculpture, GEMMES GARDEN positions each piece as both a functional object and a collectible design work. From bold statement pieces to versatile forms, the collection demonstrates how craftsmanship, material authenticity and thoughtful design can coexist in objects meant to be lived with, displayed and cherished.

Each piece is delivered with a certificate of authenticity, attesting to the natural origin of the gemstone, the artisanal processes applied and the unique qualities of the individual creation. This documentation reinforces the collection’s status as collectible furniture, where value lies as much in materials and processes as in form.

THE PIECES

KIARA Side Table

Hand-cut rose quartz shapes KIARA, revealing subtle silk-like veining and soft tonal variations. Its polished geometric form allows it to function as a side table, sculptural pedestal or design accent, bringing a sense of quiet luxury and contemplative presence to curated interiors.

NIKO Side Table

Emerald fluorite defines NIKO’s bold personality. The cubic shape, animated by the stone’s internal patterns, creates a playful interaction with light and shadow, offering a dynamic presence within sophisticated spaces.

GRONDA Side Table / Pouf

GRONDA combines hand-polished white quartz with a velvet upholstered seat, balancing mineral solidity with tactile softness. Its low, rounded profile allows dual functionality as a pouf or a side table, bringing versatility and calm to residential or hospitality settings.

OCRUB Coffee Table

Ochre jasper gives OCRUB its depth and warmth. The square coffee table features a subtle central recess for usability while preserving its geometric clarity. The layered tones of the stone create a sculptural effect, anchoring a space with a sense of quiet strength.

DUOPHILIA Side Table / Bench

DUOPHILIA is sculpted from petrified wood tone, offering dual functionality as a bench or sculptural table. Its fluid, curved form explores balance and duality, while the mineralised texture adds visual depth. This piece integrates naturally into interiors, terraces and landscaped gardens alike.

At Maison&Objet Paris 2026, ELEMENT&CO presents Gemmes Garden as a clear expresión of its design philosophy: where natural materials, artisanal expertise and contemporary vision converge. The collection illustrates how furniture can be simultaneously functional, sculptural and enduring – objects conceived not only to serve a purpose, but to hold meaning over time.
