The Studio

The first layer is always the most uncertain. By the final one, the form has decided what it wants to be. This is true of paper, which is where the Reshaping Collection began. It is true of cord and yarn, which are coming. And it is especially true of fabric — the most unpredictable, most alive, and most demanding material the studio has worked with so far. Luna began as a question. A 64cm polystyrene disc, a length of fabric, and no fixed idea of what the surface should look

The outside is what the room sees. The inside is what you see. They should not be the same. This is the idea behind Écorce — a set of hand-formed vessels in which the exterior surface is left deliberately raw and unresolved, while the interior is painted gold. The contrast is not decorative. It is a position. 'Ecorce' Vessel Set | The Reshaping Collection What you see first From across a room, Écorce reads as stone. The exterior surface is granular, mineral, chalk-white — the

It started with one question about a sofa. It ended with a room that finally made sense. This is not an unusual story. In fact it is the most common story we have — the client who arrives at a Quick Fix consultation with a specific, contained problem, and leaves having understood that the problem was never really about the sofa at all. That is not a sales observation. It is an architectural one. Rooms do not malfunction in isolation. When something feels wrong — the proportio

Every piece in the Reshaping Collection begins as something that already existed — and already mattered. That is not a marketing statement. It is a material fact. The paper in Threshold, in Soleil, in Galets — the paper that forms the structural body of every piece — was pattern paper. Working documents from years of design practice in fashion. Sheets marked with grain lines, notches, cutting instructions. The technical language of garments that were made, worn, and moved on

Paper should not last. That is what makes it interesting. We live in a material culture that defaults to permanence — ceramic, concrete, resin, cast metal. These are the languages of the object world. Heavy. Resolved. Unambiguous. And for good reason: they endure. But in that endurance, something is lost. The record of the hand. The evidence of process. The slight imperfection that makes a thing feel made rather than manufactured. Paper holds all of that. And when it is worke

Nestled along the Costa Brava, Palamós is more than just a backdrop—it’s a feeling. It’s a place where the grit of a working fishing port meets a very quiet, contemporary kind of elegance. This balance is exactly what sparked the idea for Sinopia Décor . As an architect, I’ve always been obsessed with the tension between structure and soul, and Sinopia is where those two worlds finally meet. This isn't just a concept store; it’s a narrative of the Mediterranean, told through

How Seasonal Store Decorations Influence Customer Behavior Research consistently demonstrates that the physical environment of a store is a decisive factor in shaping customer emotions and purchasing behavior. According to the Centre for Retail Research (CRR) , the "Golden Quarter" (mid-November to the end of December) is critical for European retailers. Reports indicate that Christmas spending alone drives a massive portion of annual turnover, often deciding the financial su
