ABOUT
Peca, founded in 2007 in Guadalajara, Mexico, is led by head designer and director Caterina Moretti, whose practice is defined by a deep sensitivity to detail and a profound connection to nature. Working primarily with natural, earthen materials, Moretti explores organic textures and forms to create timeless furniture, accessories, and interior projects that bring past and present into dialogue. Central to Peca’s philosophy is the preservation of ancestral craft techniques through close collaboration with local artisans and guest designers, resulting in a body of work that balances tradition and innovation while responding thoughtfully to contemporary environments.

COLLECTION
PECA
The Aurum Cabinets were made using traditional techniques by talented craftspeople. Quality materials, like sandblasted wood and 23-carat gold leaf, are fundamental to the pieces.
Wood holds a tree’s history in its rings. Gold represents the sun, mysticism, and immortality. The cabinets are the same height but different dimensions and have hinged doors that create symmetry or asymmetry against modular legs. The cabinets transform environments through light and shadows contrasted against clean lines.

Nuanced craftsmanship shapes the pieces of the Lazo collection.
A traditional Japanese wood burning technique emphasizes the grain of the tables’ wood and soft spun fibers give the lamps their subtle texture.
The pieces’ bases are the products of hands patiently molding terracotta and coating it with a bronze powder that takes on a unique metallic glow thanks to the temperature of the kiln.
PECA
TRONO is a sculptural seating piece inspired by megalithic sites, where stone structures are often aligned with celestial energy fields. It is designed to offer a moment of pause, a place to sit, reflect, and feel connected to the energy that flows from the ground beneath our feet to the cosmos above.
Each piece begis as a hand-shaped model in raw clay, capturing the maker’s gestures and fingerprints. These models are then used to carve the final forms in stone. The result is a monolithic seat, part furniture, part sculpture, that invites you to take a place in stillness and presence.

Páramo expresses the malleability of the earth. This scalable set of mosaics was modeled using parametric design and handcrafted by master craftsman Amando Pedro using an ancestral black clay technique from San Bartolo Coyotepec. Clay gives these pieces shape, fire gives them lines, and stone makes them shine.
Páramo strikes a balance of uniqueness and mathematical conception. There are eight models to choose from.
PECA
Coa is inspired by the serpentine rhythm and ancestral symbolism of Mesoamerican culture. Carved angles in volcanic tezontle create a dynamic play of light and shadow—evoking movement, depth, and mysticism. Perception shifts with every gaze, as smooth and rough textures come together in a contemplative unity, echoing the dualities embodied by the serpent.
