Draga & Aurel is a multidisciplinary studio founded by designer Draga Obradovic and artist Aurel K. Basedow, based in Como, Italy. Working across collectible design, art, and interiors, the duo explores the intersection of craftsmanship and material experimentation through sculptural furniture, lighting, and objects. Their practice is distinguished by a bold visual language that combines resin, metal, glass, concrete, and reclaimed materials to create richly textured works balancing function with artistic expression.

Guided by an intuitive, hands-on process, Draga & Aurel draw inspiration from light, color, transparency, and the aesthetics of modernism and the 1970s. Embracing experimentation as an essential part of creation, they blur the boundaries between art and design, transforming everyday objects into timeless collectible pieces defined by material richness, expressive forms, and a distinctive contemporary identity.
