A living archive of craft, matter and myth

DESIGNS SHAPED BY HAND. INSPIRED BY TRADITION, MADE FOR NOW.

A journey from Malawi to the world. Stories shaped by place and purpose.

Created by Maria Haralambidou. Architect, maker, traveler

A living design world shaped from the ground up ----- through design, craft, and deep relationships with place and people.

In a time of sameness, this is a return to rhythm, presence, and meaning.

From Raw material, to product - slow, local, intentional

The essence of our world

DESIGN

Craft informs our design — and design, in turn, challenges the craft.

The result? Timeless products that honour tradition while pushing it forward.

craft

Rooted in ancestral knowledge, kept alive through reinvention.

Challenged — and renewed — through design.

Place

Place is where everything begins. It shapes both craft and design through what’s locally possible: the materials, the techniques, the scale.
And it gives them meaning — through the people, the culture, and the stories behind each product.
