Mateus Dutra is a Brazilian-born designer based in New York and the founder of Atelier Dutré, a practice positioned at the intersection of sculpture and function. Shaped by an international background spanning fashion, photography, and interior design—and experiences across New York, Paris, and Scandinavia—his work reflects a cross-disciplinary and culturally layered perspective.
Working primarily with stone, Dutra approaches marble as a material of both physical and emotional gravity. His sculptural yet functional objects explore form, proportion, and surface, balancing solidity with restraint and subtle movement. Rooted in a family lineage connected to stone extraction and craftsmanship, his practice engages in a dialogue between inherited knowledge and contemporary experimentation, reinterpreting traditional materials for a modern sensibility while preserving a sense of permanence.
