In a traditional Puerto Rican home, there are many areas where people gather but there is always one place in particular that stands out the most, the patio. The tradition of Sunday culture (family gathering, road trips, public events, concerts, outdoor activities) has become the norm in everyday activities and its important to recognize because it sumarizes the concepts of gathering, tradition, climate and context.  This product embraces the concepts of nature, family and recreational customs of the islands culture in order to express out identity through design.

 

 
Abuelona is inspired by traditional Puerto Rican archetypes used in every home on the island. It brings back memories of our grandparents and their love for rocking chairs in the balcony watching over the neightborhood. Its fun and classical design creates activity, through motion,  in any space.
