Ulysses  de  Santi  is  a  design  dealer  and  curator  renowned  for  his  work  in  promoting  mid-20th-century  Brazilian  modernist  culture  and  design.

Sourcing  MasterpiecesGreat   design   isn’t   just   found—it’s   discovered,   reimagined,   and   given   new   life.   Ulysses   De   Santi   specializes   in   sourcing   rare   and   iconic   pieces,   uncovering   works   that   transcend   time   and   trend.With   a   sharp   eye   and   a   deep   global   network,   he   doesn’t   just   acquire   objects—   he   connects   them   with   their   rightful   place   and   purpose.   From   modernist   classics   to   unexpected   gems,   every   piece   carries   a   story   waiting   to   be   told.Acquiring   art   isn’t   about   accumulation;   it’s   about   vision.   It’s   about   building   a   lasting   legacy.Curating  SpacesA   space   is   more   than   walls   and   furniture—   it’s   an   experience,   a   composition   of   time,   light,   and   meaning.   Ulysses   De   Santi   curates   interiors   that   tell   a   story,   where   every   element   is   chosen   with   intention.

Blending   modernist   design   with   rare   finds   and   unexpected   contrasts,   he   creates   environments   that   are   both   timeless   and   deeply   personal.   Each   project   is   a   dialogue   between   history   and   the   present,   intuition   and   precision.Curating   isn’t   just   about   aesthetics—it’s   about   creating   a   space   that   speaks,   one   that   lingers   in   memory   and   feeling.Creating  BeautyBeauty   is   more   than   appearance—it’s   an   atmosphere,   a   sensation,   a   presence.   Ulysses   De   Santi   crafts   spaces   that   dissolve   the   boundaries   between   art,   design,   and   emotion.Every   project   is   a   journey—an   alchemy   of   rare   pieces,   modernist   influences,   and   striking   contrasts.   Whether   shaping   interiors   or   assembling   collections,   he   creates   narratives   where   every   object,   texture,   and   detail   has   meaning.Beauty   isn’t   decoration;   it’s   an   experience.   It’s   what   transforms   a   space   into   a   story,   a   collection   into   a   legacy.
