Timeless. Minimal. Concrete. "Pare down to the essence, but don't remove the poetry. Keep things clean and unencumbered but don't sterilize."
I have always believed that beauty lies in things imperfect and quietly waits to be found. I have always kept distant from the idea of absolute perfection, trying to exploit imperfection and to design objects capable to grow old, to change, to tell a story. FACTO is born from a desire to connect imperfection and beauty, objects and people, things and hearts. FACTO is intuitive minimalism with an i
mperfect aesthetic. FACTO objects are simple, irregular, made of natural materials, vulnerable to the passage of time. They are pieces of my life which I gave shape with my own hands, that weave pieces of your life and will constantly be filled with new meanings in your homes. - MARIO
Mario Meneo was born in 1988 in Faicchio, a small town in the province of Benevento. In 2006, he moved to Rome, where he studied Architecture & Engineering. His career as a designer begins in a university classroom. He started a journey of research and experimentation of forms and materials. From there the approach to one of the most discussed and used building materials: concrete. In 2015 he founded FACTO, an indipendent and self-produced concrete design brand. Today, Mario continues to challenge himself to prove that the concrete, it's not only, as defined by the history of architecture, a cold material, but it can become the protagonist in any interior space.
