Below you can find some of our favourite pieces from their collection.
LIMITED EDITION TRIGONO SIDEBOARD is a master piece assemblage of the finest Es
-
Tremoz Rosa Aurora Vigaria marble and walnut wood veneer. The contrast tones of walnut
wood veneer and the white finishing confer both tension and visual warmth to TRIGONO
sideboard. Its cubic volume is divided in equal compartments with shelves, drawers and
doors, and stands on distinct, elegant and light legs. The ultimate detail: the handles of the
drawers are fluidly incorporated in the front surface.
ATIRCONSOLEATIR is a piece of exquisite elegance and lightness, with an intriguing sense of disequilibrium and instability, given by the presence of only one leg. A slim height drawer and shelf, aswell as the top, offer comfortable storage space to this partially wall mount piece of iconicfurniture. White finishes and the light colour of a unique piece of precious Ochiro marbleperfectly match the slim milled brass leg.
ABOUT MAAMI HOME DESIGNS
Maami Home designs mix traditional Portuguese techniques and contemporary styling to create, hand-finished pieces using quality materials. But these designs are far more than simply furniture. We try to develop unique pieces of art, always looking for a rare beauty and elegance. Based in Porto, Portugal, and founded in 2007, this is a small company with an expert team that can draw upon decades of experience. The result is a collection that blends traditional skills with state-of-the-art technology. Each piece is lovingly finished by hand to ensure a luxury product that truly highlights the beauty of its unusual materials.
Stones are heavy, hard materials to work with, lacking the versatility and warmth of wood. This is not a barrier for us. Instead it’s a declared defiance of nature. It is a delicate process to bring out the best of marble without making it lose its personality. Our purpose is to design equilibrium between stone, wood and other noble materials.
USING YOUR MARBLES
Maami Home use only the highest-quality stones to ensure a unique finish, complemented by equally luxurious woods and metal. Customers can also have pieces tailor-made, or add bespoke touches. As a result, apparently unwieldy stone is transformed into exquisite feather-light creations. With products for living room, collections have seen Estremoz Pink Aurora Vigaria marble contrasted with warm walnut wood and balanced on sleek metal supports. Perhaps the most eye-catching is the ATIR console, which appears to hover in mid-air, its Ochiro marble balanced on a single- milled brass leg.
The retro influences are obvious in our designs, the quest for enhancing the best in marble, making it light physically and visually, took us to a very minimal approach. Developing the first designs gave us the knowledge to develop ATIR where equilibrium is the main design element of the console. It’s not only the skill involved and quality materials which sets Maami Home apart, it’s the passion that’s poured into each timeless and unique piece. We love the sense of strength, steadiness of marble and natural stone, love the challenge of working with this material, love the surprising patterns and uniqueness of every single piece. So it’s no surprise that more customers are falling in love with our creations too.
