STUDIO & WORK

Omayra Maymó is an architect and designer occupied in the creation of pieces of furniture, lighting and objects, through which she explores the narrative and emotional power of our material world. After a long period living and working in Copenhagen, where she founded her design studio in 2016, she is currently based in her hometown, Madrid, from where she collaborates with different companies internationally.

Her work is centered in creating timeless, honest and meaningful objects that appeal to the most emotional aspects of design. She conceives each piece as a unique little story that merges the functional with the sensitive and abstract, in order to make the everyday a little more exciting and inspiring.

THE APPROACH

“My work is centered in creating timeless, honest and meaningful objects through which I appeal to the most emotional aspects of design. I conceive each object as a unique little story that merges the functional with the sensitive and the abstract to make the everyday material around us more exciting and rich.”

WORK

"My work and approach has been shaped by my background in architecture and my connection to Denmark and the Danish design tradition. I believe in the beauty and importance of the honest, the simple and the subtle, and work only with what is essential to the object. My projects display a profound respect for craftsmanship and the nature of materials and a careful attention to small details."

SHOP

Omayra recently started to independently produce some of her own little stories, which are now available for purchase exclusively on this website alongside a selection of other designs developed for different collaborators. All pieces are made by small-scale fabricators and traditional artisans, brought to life through skillful craftsmanship, using the highest quality of sustainably-sourced materials.
