Bocci is a multidisciplinary design studio, research lab, and factory rooted in the design philosophy of Omer Arbel. Our work explores experimental production methods that allow materials to behave according to their inherent properties, revealing unexpected qualities in glass, metal, concrete, fire, electricity, and more.
At the core of our process is a system of numbered concepts. Each project receives a number in the order it was conceived, forming a chronological record of Arbel's evolving ideas. This numbering system spans everything from architecture to archived experiments, published works, and ongoing projects. It reflects an ongoing exploration where each piece contributes to a larger body of work defined by curiosity, process, and discovery.
