Cristian also co-founded Caramba Furniture, a Victoria-based company creating locally-made flat-pack furniture using high-quality European plywood

Caramba Furniture produced high-quality flat-pack furniture in Victoria, BC. Using sustainably-sourced European plywood, Caramba offered a range of minimalist designs including coffee tables, WFH desks, lounge chairs, stools, and side tables. Arostegui's designs for Caramba feature a versatile aesthetic that complements various spaces.

Arostregui’s designs for Caramba “feature a minimalist aesthetic that looks great anywhere”.

What they said about Caramba:

• YAM Maganzine

• Uncrate

• Gessato

• Canadian Interiors

Regrettably, Caramba has closed its doors due to the difficulty of competing with large companies like Ikea. For a small company like Caramba, it is impossible to offer prices in the same range as Ikea.
