The collection featured handmade, limited edition, one-of-a-kind works, including a DJ booth, Credenza, Chairs, Poufs, and Sculptural Lighting. All collectible design pieces were made of sustainably sourced bird eye wood, marble, oak wood, fair trade faux fur, pineapple and mushroom leather, and metal. What made this collection unique was the way it integrated human connections with nature, as well as infusing healing energy into the space.
Speaking about her inspiration for the collection, Bea Pernia said, "Nature serves as my primary source of inspiration. For this special collection, my aim was to blend the concept of nature with human connections. I found great inspiration in exploring how human interaction can be integrated with the natural world, as it holds the purpose of our existence on Earth. Combining this concept with the idea of infusing healing energy into the space, I drew inspiration from biomorphic shapes, patterns found in nature, rhythmic elements, sounds, and vibrations."
