Mario Martínez
He is a Spanish industrial designer based in Copenhagen who works with a focus on furniture, lighting, and art direction. He founded his studio in 2018, driven by the relationship between objects, people, and environments, with the ambition of creating simple and responsible designs that are coherent and transmit a sense of harmony. This sensitivity, along with his appreciation for craftsmanship and everyday objects, is reflected in the proportions, the use of materials, and the attention to detail in his work.
He studied in Barcelona, worked in New York, and moved to Copenhagen to collaborate with Hee Welling and Gudmundur Ludvik before starting his own studio. After exhibiting at Salone Satellite in 2019 and 2022, he was awarded the AD Satellite Rising Stars prize and began collaborating with companies such as Karl Andersson & Söner, MUJI, Space10, or Gandia Blasco. His work has been exhibited and recognized internationally, standing out in places such as the Milan Triennale, the Salone del Mobile, Stockholm Design Week, as well as in media such as Dezeen, Frame, or Design Milk.

“The essential is noticed by its absence and the superfluous by its excess. A piece of work, if well done, often goes unnoticed because what is non-invasive and what works is relegated to the level of the obvious”
