Mexico City, Mexico
With a focus on furniture and lighting, his designs are sculptural yet restrained, where clean geometries and subtle details highlight the natural beauty of metalwork. His approach is both intuitive and precise, creating objects that feel timeless, elemental, and deeply connected to their material origins.
“I decided that I wanted to design an object to add to my collection so that I could see it every day among the objects that I admire”
Guided by a strong architectural sensibility, Baño crafts pieces that merge traditional craftsmanship with a contemporary edge. Manu shapes metal sheets into functional sculptures, embracing imperfections and allowing each piece to evolve beautifully over time, and acts as a testament to the artisanal craft.
Every curve, joint, and finish is considered to create designs that are understated yet bold, functional yet artistic. Through a process of continuous refinement, Manu Baño creates objects that exist beyond trends, offering a quiet yet powerful presence in modern interiors.
“(…) to dig in the past, and find interesting stories that we can translate into contemporary collectible design objects”
