The studio’s approach to design is influenced by it’s members mixed background in architecture and industrial design, who through a shared vision, combine different materials with production processes rooted in craft and insdustry to create pieces that seek to elevate the experience of the everyday life. Being actively involved in the making of their pieces allows them to have alternative readings of standarized production processes that embrace both success and failure as an outcome and therefore, their pieces are imprinted with those stories. The studio was founded in 2016 and is directed by Marcos Altgelt and Tasio Picollo.
