This is MAOMI

We spend our lives with things. We pick them up, use them every day, and at some point they become a natural part of our home and our rituals.

MAOMI grew out of the wish to give exactly these things more meaning. To create objects that do not just fulfil a function but do something to us: through their form, their surface, their weight – and through the people and stories they carry within them.

That is why our work keeps taking us to places where things are still made by hand. To small workshops and manufactories, to people who know their material and have refined their craft over many years.

Many of our designs came about through experimenting together – with sketches and prototypes, through conversations and gestures, and sometimes even without a shared language.
To this day, MAOMI is made this way: together, with curiosity and with great respect for what people can create with their hands.

Because we believe it makes a difference what we surround ourselves with. Not because we need more things, but because the right things can make our lives a little more beautiful.
