The name Scafall comes from the Irish word for scaffolding: a structure built to support something as it becomes. The word was chosen not only for its meaning, but for its sound: soft, architectural, and steady. It evokes a framework that holds space without demanding to be seen. Scafall creates homes and décor at the meeting point between flow and a playful hybridisation of architectural genres into contemporary restraint.
Today
Scafall is led by Gianna Marques, a designer devoted to building digital spaces. Her work is grounded in a sensitivity to proportion, material harmony, and emotional logic.
Each Scafall release reflects a commitment to architectural realism and spatial rhythm, not simply mimicking physical structures, but interpreting them through feeling.
Gianna’s approach blends lived memory with the random sparks that come through flow, with a deep attentiveness to real-world design: the smoothness of stone, the warmth of timber, the way a single line can shape a room.
Where It All Began
In 2021, Scafall was born through a shared creative exploration between self-taught 3D artists, Zaidbahadar Resident and Gianna Marques, a partnership rooted in love, mutual challenge and a shared passion for art. Their first project was a unisex jewellery set; the second, a pair of sunglasses; but after building their first structure (endearingly called “the Elephant House” – never released), and then Solaire, there was no going back.
Zaid handled the precision while Gianna moved by feeling, shaping everything in between. With backgrounds in traditional arts, Zaid and Gianna brought a foundation of craft and a sensitivity into their digital work. Their creations are influenced by a convergence of styles, but always threaded with a deep appreciation for nature, negative space, depth and tactile realism.
A New Chapter
In November 2023, Zaid stepped away from Scafall to focus on his real-life pursuits while Gianna continued to evolve the brand’s voice and vision. Since then, Scafall has been led entirely by Gianna, with a renewed commitment to soul-driven design.
Looking Ahead
Each release is built with the intention of offering something real, not just visually, but emotionally: spaces that invite breath, playfulness, belonging, and ease. Scafall isn’t driven by trends, but is guided by care, and the love of making things that matter, even in the small ways.
Thank you for letting Scafall be a part of your Second Life.
A Letter From Gianna
Dear friends,
Scafall has grown into a space where I can pursue my passion for the arts and share my creative landscapes with you. Thank you for trusting me to build a small part of your Second Life, and for your patience through seasons of growth, change, and becoming.
I hope that with every new home, every vessel, every light, you feel the soul that goes into every piece. There’s so much more to come, and I’m honoured to walk this path with you.
Always,
Gianna
