Paradise Gray is a Philadelphia based home decor brand, formed by Dante Porcelli and Michelle Rivera, that preserves cultural elements by reinterpreting their materiality and functionality. Their intent is to curate a home that is as stylish as the individual. This artistic view of the home was brought about by the growing need for accessible, yet unique, furniture and art.

Dante Porcelli and Michelle Rivera are designers whose work is centered on the experimentation of natural, synthetic, and recycled materials through the lens of hyper-realism. Their focus is primarily blurring the boundaries between experiential installations, interior design, and conceptual art while constantly in pursuit of the unexpected.

Dante’s background in work ranges from small scale resin/plaster toys for Daniel Arsham to inhabitable structures of crushed glass and sand for Fernando Mastrangelo. His unique journey working with Tyler Hays of BDDW, Daniel Arsham and Fernando Mastrangelo has led Dante to establish his own company Philadelphia CNC and the brand Paradise Gray. His work with these artists has been featured in Galerie Perrotin, Art Basel, Dior, Rimowa, Times Square, Audemars Piguet, 1st Dibs, AD Design Show, NY Armory Show, ICFF, Design Miami, and Hypebeast.

Michelle Rivera has spent the past few years in the advertising industry as a Graphic Designer and Art Director. She has worked with a range of brands such as Crown Royal Apple, Ally Bank, Melé Skincare, Nordstrom, Lone River Ranch Water, and Viñoly Architects, where she created successful campaigns and brand identities. Michelle’s work focuses on branding for the modern world using a clean, concise aesthetic. She has been featured in Adweek and GD USA, as well as honored by the Type Directors Club.
